These lines are probably irrelevant; they are due to a quirk in the order
in which Abi checks file types for import. Mind you, I'm not a code person,
so they may be vital...

Log the bug on AbiWord bugzilla, and attach an rtf file that produces the
crash. It is possible that your source of rtf files is doing something odd,
or that the problem has to do with choice of fonts or something similar.
Mark the priority as P1 and the severity as major, because this is a
crashing bug.
