It also is bogus for me using latest cvs build of AbiWord for Windows (post 0.99.1).
As far as I know there is not a 0.99.1 build for Windows yet.
The cause appears to be the í (i with an accent), as replacing it with an i (plain)
in the document allows it to open, alternatively adding an encoding value to
the <?xml declaration (eg <?xml version="1.0" encoding="latin1"?> ) also allows
it to open, but any valid value I've tried for encoding results in the í being
replaced by Ã- (two characters) when AbiWord shows the text. This is just
from glancing, I'm sure someone with more time/experience with code can give
a more accurate answer.
