In OpenOffice.org 3.0.1, there is a small yet annoying problem that occurs when
two words are joined by an em dash.  For instance, type the following sentence
into a blank document:

I am experienced with computers—and there is no doubt about it.

According to OpenOffice, the word count is 11.  However, the correct word count
is 12.  The trouble spot is where the words "computers" and "and" are joined by
the em dash.  As explained before, if you highlight this region, OpenOffice will
think the word count there is 1, but the actual word count is 2.

To reproduce the problem:
1. Open OpenOffice.org Writer.
2. Enter the text into the blank document as above.
3. Click the "Tools" menu.
4. Click the "Word Count" menu item to verify the incorrect word count.
