The AbiWord win32 0.9 problems I described recently on wine-users with Codeweavers Preview 4 also happen with the latest Wine built from CVS this afternoon. These problems don't happen when run on Windows, nor when running the native Linux version; they therefore appear to be Wine bugs.

I stand ready and willing to apply and test patches, but might not have time to write any fixes myself.
Thanks, Dan
