As noted in other comments: mine is an "upgrade" installation from Hardy to 
Karmic. As Cheney states he can not reproduce on a fresh install I decided to 
try something:
1. I removed the /home/user/.openoffice.org directory
2. Started Openoffice.org writer, all settings and plugins gone
3. Created a document with changes and a note
4. saved as ms office 97/2000 document without any problems

problem now solved

-- 
OpenOffice crashes when saving .doc file with "notes" in it, Karmic.
