(
Sorry for the long delay! However, reproducing issues which make it necessary
to let an application run for hours (repeatedly!) in the foreground to see
if it will finally crash, or finally recover from the apparent freeze, is not
what I can do by the way in gaps of my daytime occupations ;-)
)

Again: thank you very much for your bug report!

At least one problem with the file in question seems nearly 100% REPRODUCIBLE
for me (tested with LibreOffice 3.6.3.2 on Mac OS X 10.6.8, Intel):

Steps to reproduce:
0) Reset your LibreOffice user profile (to preclude any influence
   of local settings)
1) Start LibreOffice.
2) Open the file.
3) Without waiting too long, select “Tools > Update > Update All”
   from the menu bar.
4) Let LibreOffice work; it seems frozen, but I wanted to test
   if it would finally recover from this state.
   I haven’t done exact time measurements,
   but on my MacBook Pro 2010 with 2.53 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB RAM
   and SSD hard drive this will take about 45 min.
-> Finally, LibreOffice crashes.

I will attach the log file created by Mac OS X for the crash. It is of
impressive simplicity: Thread 0 crashed with EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV),
and the stack trace for Thread 0 just reads:

0   libswlo.dylib  0x211b7e60 SwTxtFrm::HideAndShowObjects() + 608
1   libswlo.dylib  0x211b7e78 SwTxtFrm::HideAndShowObjects() + 632
................ the last line repeated 510 times ................

This crash is already reproducible by the steps given above with LibreOffice
3.3.0, and also with every version I have tested (3.4.0, 3.5.0, 3.6.0.4).
So this problem was probably inherited from OpenOffice.org.

It is still present in the current daily build:
LOdev 4.0.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: ed8067; pull time: 2012-11-15 03:54:19).


I hope that further research will help to isolate what exactly causes so much
work for LibreOffice that it finally crashes ;-) But for now: at least this
apparent freeze and final crash are really almost 100% reproducible.
