Document that crashes writer.

I have a docx file that opens fine in the Windows version of LibreOffice 4.x but does crash on the same version in Linux.

I have also tested versions:

4.3.1.x
4.2.6.x

And the result is the same, the Windows version can open the file but the Linux version crashes.

I tested the file with old versions of LibreOffice:

3.5.4
3.6.5.2

And with those old versions the Linux version does not crash.

(Also reproduced on OSX; setting to Platform: All)

This appears to have been fixed on master already, but not backported. Will reopen the other bug with a request for that to happen.

I confirm that version 4.3.3.0.0+ (built at home under Ubuntu 14.04 x86-64) with the fix for bug 79535 opens this file without crash.

Best regards. JBF
