Crash on red squiggly line (was Re: Orca/Magnifier Issues)

[Willie Walker]

Hi Peter et al:

I was just doing some testing with this on Ubuntu Edgy with gedit 2.16.1
and OOo 2.0.4-0ubuntu2.  

I've got good news and bad news.  The bad news is that I was able to
confirm that OOo crashes when doing a spell check while Orca is running.
Bummer.  The good news is that inspecting the text attributes of a word
with a red squiggly line doesn't seem to cause a crash.

I'll file a bug with the OOo folks regarding the crash.

Thanks!

Will
