That's indeed possible.

The idea was to add a new method "IsInDtor" to the layout and use this
instead of the method of SwDoc where appropriate.

The *real* fix would be fixing the layout mess so that it does not crash
when a layout of a certain complexity is destroyed. But most probably
that come close to a rewrite.

The patch with the workaround you mentioned (that BTW meanwhiles is
integrated in AOOo) has an explanation for the problem in vnew.cxx.
