I downloaded the OpenOffice source code and, then, discovered what was happening. All instances of "SXF" in the pt_BR.aff file must be replaced with "SFX". The invalid flag is not causing problems for OpenOffice because myspell ignores the first field of all lines but the first of a rule of expansion, and the "SXF" flag never appears in the first line. Vim reads the first field of all lines and, thus, it was able to spot the invalid flag.
