OpenOffice Writer hangs whenever I execute a macro -- no particular
macro, as it even happens when no macro is defined at all.

  OpenOffice version: 2.0.2-2ubuntu12.2, Thu Jan 11 01:39:38 UTC 2007
  Operating system: Ubuntu

  To exhibit the problem:

   1. At command line, type ooffice.
      (Or start Writer any other way, for that matter.)
      A window appears entitled "Untitled1 - OpenOffice.org Writer".

   2. Select "Tools / Macros / Run Macro...".

   3. OpenOffice.org Writer is hung: the drop-down "Tools" menu
      and its "Macros" sub-menu do not retract. Dragging another
      window across the OpenOffice Writer window leaves a gray
      trail. Below the command line, this message appears:
      *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0xb61f2678 ***

I downloaded and installed a new OpenOffice from openoffice.org,
OOo_2.1.0_LinuxIntel_iinstall_en-US.tar.gz, but the problem remains
unchanged.

Can everybody else use macros? Is it just me? Does anybody out
there run OpenOffice under Ubuntu and use macros successfully?

Thanks.
