Mike,

Sorry, what I said was poorly phrased.  Actually, AFAIK, AbiWord cannot
export .doc, but exports .rtf.  IIRC, users on the abiword lists
requested that the .rtf be given a .doc extension by default so that
Word can import what AbiWord exports.

It's a pretty technical distinction that won't make any difference in
most cases.
