Dear Paul, Is there are any chance you could run abiword with strace and provide the output?
It appears to me that you're running customised kernel which might be a source of this problem. Given the number of users, I would expect much more reports if this would be the case for other people, so please excuse me for suspecting something peculiar in your configuration.
