We have had a problem with an Impress presentation containing a lot of calc8 OLE
objects: 
At some point OOo crashed for a reason unknown while such a document was open.
When OOo was restarted it recovered this Impress presentation, and the document
looked good at first. So the document was then saved and closed.
Then after reopening the document, we noticed that a lot of those OLE objects
where replaced by a single icon 'OLE' and no way to recover the original OLE 
object.
I also noticed that after the recovering, and saving the document was suddenly
only half of its original size, but still looked good after the recover. Only
when the document was then closed and reopened, a lot of the OLE objects where
broken (not all of them).
We have been able to reproduce this a few times and the number of OLE objects
that where broken after the recover - save - close - reopen seem to be
completely random.
This document however contains a lot of confidential information so I'm not able
to attach it here.

I tried to reproduce this same problem with a new test document that I can
attach here, but I couldn't reproduce it with the exact same result, however a
similar result came up: After recovering the document a lot of OLE objects where
already broken without even first saving, closing and reopening the document.

Steps to reproduce:
- Open the attached document
- make some changes to it (add new slides and put some calc OLE objects to it)
- add some animations to those objects (not certain if this has anything to do
with it, but this is how I did it)
- wait for OOo to take an automatic backup if the file
- change some more on the document
- kill all soffice processes
- start OOo
- Recover the document
--> a few or a lot of the OLE objects are now broken
- If not, then save the document, close and reopen
--> a few OLE objects should now be broken

I think this should certainly be fixed in the next version (3.2.1? or 3.3?) as
one should be able to trust the automatic recovering feature of OOo
