Problem description: 
I'm trying to connect via odbc to a mdb file using the base wizard, all seems 
to go fine, also connection test, but just after I choose where to save the odb 
file and click save, libreoffice crashes, produced file (odb) if opened makes 
libreoffice crash again.
These are version programs and configurations involved :
I was trying to connect to an existing mdb (MS Access) database file using 
unixodbc and libreoffice-base,
I've got unixodbc , undixodbc-bin and libmdbodbc1 packages installed
I set the odbc as following :

/etc/odbc.ini
[Pippo]
Description = mine database
Driver = /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/odbc/libmdbodbc.so.1
Database = /home/magowiz/pippo.mdb

/etc/odbcinst.ini
[MDBTools]
Description = MDBTools Driver
Driver = /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/odbc/libmdbodbc.so.1
Setup = /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/odbc/libmdbodbc.so.1
Usage = 1
FileUsage = 1
UsageCount = 2

I use the connection wizard into libreoffice base : I can successfully
test mine connection but while I'm saving the odb file the whole program
crashes and close itself

It follows distro and software versions :

$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 13.10
Release: 13.10

apt-cache policy libreoffice-base
libreoffice-base:
  Installed: 1:4.1.2~rc3-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1:4.1.2~rc3-0ubuntu1

apt-cache policy unixodbc
unixodbc:
  Installed: 2.2.14p2-5ubuntu4
  Candidate: 2.2.14p2-5ubuntu4

apt-cache policy libmdbodbc1
libmdbodbc1:
  Installed: 0.7-3
  Candidate: 0.7-3


Steps to reproduce:
1. configure like described above unixodbc to point to mdb file
2. open libreoffice base and choose to connect via ODBC to db name choosen 
while configurating unixodbc
3. choose where to save the odb file and then click save

Current behavior:
It crashes just after save button is clicked

Expected behavior:
it should open libreoffice base main interface to make me able to work with the 
database

The same file can be opened by libreoffice windows version on windows 7

              
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.1.3.2 release
