    "You're wrong." LibGSF works fine on Win32. Even the
    IStream backend to LibGSF works fine on Win32.

    The OpenOffice plugins need a lot of love. I'd place
    the blame entirely there. Of course, this is just
    pushing the blame from (dom, libgsf) to (dom, abiword)
    ;-)

    Best regards,
    Dom
