Ok, I guess if it's known I can live with that, it's just I seem to have 
found a reliable (on my system anyway) way of producing issues, that 
involves a fairly obvious variable. Also because I haven't seen problems 
on my other box in a while (though I also don't use OOo here). I was 
hoping that would point to a specific issue that could be addressed.
