Maybe locking? Please try 3.1, which has some of the loging regressions

I will try but OO.o is in so many packages that it's quite difficult to
upgrade ad hoc to 3.1.
(And if that doesn't fix it - why is this "important", please? It's not as
afs is a common fs on pcs where you commonly use OOo ;) )
Actually it's quite common in large enterprises as a centralized file
server protocol.
And: How does your reported bug relate to ##216596 (open since
2003, thus still marked as existant in 2.4.1. You claim it worked in
2.4.1?
It looks the same, except that mine worked just fine in 2.4.1. However the
issue reported in http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=25850
refers to a locking problem on install, not a problem opening documents.
(Note upstream set the issue
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=25850 to wontfix, because
they claim the lock daemon didn't run (properly). Is it running properly for
you?)
Here is the strace output from opening the file:
