Example file that will produce parser errors

Problem description:
The problem persists when opening Excel exports from the JIRA issue tracker.
The files work fine on version 3.3.4 of LibreOffice.
When opening a file from Chrome or terminal the import dialog is not shown and
the spreadsheet is blank.
I figured out that I can work around the problem by clicking the "File" menu
and selecting the document under "Recent Documents". The import dialog will
then show and after clicking OK, the spreadsheet shows data as expected.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open an XLS file via the File, Open or from an external program or terminal
2. The scalc program starts and shows a blank spreadsheet
3. If you open via terminal you will see a large amount of parser errors

Current behavior:
Parser errors, no import dialog and blank spreadsheet

Expected behavior:
No errors, show the import dialog and data in the spreadsheet after clicking OK
on the import.

Platform (if different from the browser):
Confirmed on LibreOffice 3.4.3 on both Ubuntu 11.04 and 11.10 x86_64. 

Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/535.2 (KHTML, like Gecko)
Chrome/15.0.874.106 Safari/535.2
