I have /repeatedly/ mentioned that you should either:

a) send them to me
b) report it to IssueZilla and attach it

Keeping in view that FreeBSD packages are community built, there could 
be a bug introduced in the gsl/vcl areas, depending on what makefile was 
used (tada, different configure options, and what not). Also, m137 isn't 
OOo2 (time to portupgrade). And ditesh's m3, we ought to check with 
Khairil, as it may as well /not be/ m3 (and a forgotten update of the 
makefile in his pre-built package)

Now, if this was MS Office, would you call MS Support? Would they care? 
;-) Just curious, since I've never used it before
