This is offensive to say "primitive". It is just unmaintained, with
unfixed issues. Remember, AbiWord is run by volunteers, and said
volunteers have a logical preference for Linux.

NeoOffice has never run under X11. You are confusing with OpenOffice.org.
Running AbiWord on Mac using Gtk and X11 isn't supported. That mean that
you have to build it yourself and if any problem you have, fix it yourself.
At that point building trunk (2.7.x) without X11 might be better, but it
still has rough edges :-)
