The bad news is that I can confirm that the sample file won't even open in LO 3.5.7.2 or 3.6.3.2 under Windows XP.
It fails with a General Error. General input/output error.

The good news is that it opens correctly using Version 4.0.0.0.alpha1+ (Build ID: 6aabe09ac092c51d4b394bde9c7ea0055b952e3)

My guess is that the I/O error is caused by the absence of Java in my machine (I will confirm it later on another PC)

Apparently that is not the cause. Showed the same error on another PC with JRE 1.7.0_09 installed

I can confirm this bug has been fixed. I tested this with the daily windows build for 3.6.4.3 .
