I don't think a bug can be dupe with itself ;)

I reported it separately because none of the docx crash bugs that search found
were specific enough. My previous experience tells me that Libreoffice is
robust software that does not crash just because the document happens to be
saved in docx format. Rather there's probably a very specific feature used in
the document that causes the crash. It might be that some of those other
crashing documents actually contain content controls as well but it is very
difficult to find out when they crash before you can see the contents. In my
opinion just the document type being the same shouldn't warrant duping when
most of the time docx documents can be opened and it is not verified that it
actually crashes for the same reason, as in someone actually checked with debug
build and traces were the same.

> Did that work with earlier version?
So I'm not sure how LibreOffice handles earlier "previous" versions but it does
open without crashing in OpenOffice 3.1.1 (I don't know if that was released
before or after LibreOffice forked)
> What's your OS?
It crashes both with LibreOffice 3.4.3 on WinXP SP3 and 3.4.4RC1 on Ubuntu
11.4. Both are 32bit systems.

If there are any newer compiled versions than 3.4.4RC1 that should be tested,
please let me know where they can be found!
