The user (I think it's probably the same one) came by the SIPB office
and was able to reproduce it here. mikemp helped debug it --
apparently she had old configuration files (a tangled mess of symlinks
to a RHEL 3 configuration directory). He backed up the config files
and then removed them for her, and it worked just fine. So it sounds
like a legacy open office problem, rather than a particular machine
problem.
