Since there is no reference in the LO3.3 info.plist file to file type icon
associated to oasis nor file- icons, I assume the bug was already present in
that version.

I can confirm, though, that in the latest available version (4.1.5) of Open
Office for Mac this bug is present too. It may be reasonable to think (but I am
not stating it though) that this bug was simply inherited from OO, and that no
one has worked it around yet.

I lack coding knowledge so i can not answer your question, but
CFBundleTypeIconFile seems to be the most widespread way to assign file type
icons in the info.plist files all over many apps for mac. That could be given a
try.
