Sorry, as a hint to them, take a look at:

#0  0x081f327f in fl_BlockLayout::getSpanPtr(unsigned, unsigned const**,
unsigned*) const (this=0xd0d0d0d0, offset=3503345872, ppSpan=0xd0d0d0d1,
    pLength=0xd0d0d0d1) at fl_BlockLayout.cpp:1989

See the 0xd0d0d0d0?  That's the fill pattern used by our malloc when AJ
flags are enabled.  Doing ln -s aj /etc/malloc.conf should workaround
this problem, but it looks like there is some memory management problems
somewhere in AbiWord.  It's weird that the this pointer has been freed
(or maybe malloc'd but not assigned).
