I am using the Crux controls, the mwm-north window decoration, standard
mouse pointer, and Gartoon icons.
The Crux GTK+ theme comes with the system.
Why is OOo so sensitive to the theme? I changed to another custom theme
that I have and it worked just fine. That makes this bug all the more
critical: It isn't immediately clear that you have to have a specific
theme to use OOo. In fact, that's downright asinine---the _last_ thing
that should make a piece of software crash is the theme you are using.

+ Original Report:
+
Consistently, when I attempt to select any item from a context menu in a
document in Writer or Calc, OpenOffice locks up. Apport is not catching
a crash, and when I run it from a terminal, the same error is displayed
(see attachment to come).
The only way to close is it to force it to close by sending it a signal.
This is a critical bug and can be reproduced even after removing all
OpenOffice data in ${HOME}.
This is on a fully up-to-date Gutsy system running on a dual-core AMD64
system. The system is running a 64-bit kernel and userland.
