Hi All.

I'm sorry for those test, i planned to "fix" them as soon as possible,
it but turns out "possible" is kinda late :(

THe problem is that according to specification all properties values
must be padded to 4 bytes. This rule applies to all types of
properties, including, sadly, unsupported type VARIABLE <something>.
We can read this property as byte[], but we must write it including
padding... and we don't even know if this padding is required for
particular value. To check this Variable property type support should
be added.

I will try to add support for all types of properties (asap... heh)
today evening or tomorrow evening.

The good point is - after latest patches related to HPSF word files
pass validation tool (and they didn't before).

Best regards,
Sergey
