Wiped my user profile and was able to reproduce again in 6.1.5.2

This problem is probably Windows only. And largely for long file names.

To reproduce:

1. Create a new Writer document.
2. From file manager/windows explorer drag and drop a vector file (EMF, WMF,
SVG, SVM) with a long name into Writer while pressing CTL+SHIFT. This will
create a link to the file. A long file name will have more than 8 characters
before the extensions. (Example: long_picture_name.svg  17 chars before
extension). 
3. Verify that image is a link. Do Edit...Links... See your image. It will not
show as long_picture_name.svg, but instead as an all caps 8.3 name,
LONG_P~1.SVG.
4. Save file.
5. Close file.
6. Open file. Link is gone. Image is replaced by some sort of low resolution
raster thumbnail.
