That did indeed fix the problem.  Basically, I looked at where in the code
the crash occurred, and how simple I could make the document and still get
the crash to occur.  I stopped short of actually editing the style itself,
so I was a little to presumptuous as to the cause.    

The bottom line is that your analysis was right on, and the fix works in
both the sample document I sent to you as well as the huge original
document sent by one of the AbiWord users.  I have closed the bug.
