Bug Description

I had an envelope template created in OpenOffice.org 1.x. I wanted to use it in AbiWord which can't handle OpenOffice .sxw files, so I opened the file in OpenOffice.org 2.0 and exported it as an .odt file, then attempted to open it in AbiWord.

AbiWord was busy for several minutes with no obvious progress, so I killed it.

2.4.2 renders the first, but not the second (and I do have the ODT plugin installed).
