Build and execution environment:
$ uname -a
Linux cougar-natty 2.6.38-15-generic #64-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 6 17:18:17 UTC
2012 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux
$ gcc --version
gcc (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.5.2-8ubuntu4) 4.5.2
For comparison, LibreOffice supplied with ubuntu-natty (LibreOffice
3.3.4, OOO330m19 (Build:401)) has used 100% of the CPU for several
minutes without producing any visible result.
In the complete absence of any idea about what changed in the program,
I am setting bug status to RESOLVED WORKSFORME. Can other commenters,
especially those on other platforms, please confirm the lack of crash?
Terry.
