So, the root cause of this had been there for some time, but the code 
was never used in the libreoffice code until now.

I'll skip the details of the crash in the dbgutil build since I'm a bit 
unsettled to touch that topic. Perhaps we can fancy talking that over 
with a beer or two at the next conference.  I'll just say that it's one 
of those C++ mysteries that I didn't know existed until today.

Anyway, this commit

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=4169a1264f8b491e80740c82bada9f6c34e4d26e

*should* fix it.  There were other uno api test breakages even after the 
fix, though, but none of them looked related to the mdds problem.
