I'm not sure if this is correct way to go, but I was able to solve it by 
adding --enable-builtin-plugins="opendocument openxml" to CONFIGURE_ARGS 
in Makefile. Just rebuild abiword with this change, and you got properly 
rendered document instead of chartrash in the abiword window.

PS. Actually only `openxml' is required here, but I didn't tested if 
this change will save capability to open .odf's too.
