Problem description: 

Deleting words from your custom wordbook corrupts your custom wordbook (file "standard.dic" in user-folder "wordbook").

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start with an empty wordbook -> empty user-folder "wordbook" or a "standard.dic" file that just contains the default entry:

OOoUserDict1
lang: <none>
type: positive
---

2. Open writer and type in the three words "herxherx" "hirxhirx" "harxharx"

3. Add the three words to your custom wordbook (right-click on each and choose "Add")

4. Now your "standard.dic" file should look like this:

OOoUserDict1
lang: <none>
type: positive
---
harxharx
herxherx
hirxhirx

5.1 Go to "Tools -> Options -> Language Settings -> Writing Aids -> User-defined dictionaries
-> "standard [All]" -> Edit", delete the first entry (harxharx), then click "close", then click "OK" (closing the Options-Menu) then close Writer

5.1.1 Your wordbook entry now looks like this (last entry doubled):

OOoUserDict1
lang: <none>
type: positive
---
herxherx
hirxhirx
hirxhirx

5.2 Go to "Tools -> Options -> Language Settings -> Writing Aids -> User-defined dictionaries
-> "standard [All]" -> Edit", delete the second entry (herxherx), then click "close", then click "OK" (closing the Options-Menu) then close Writer

5.2.1 Your wordbook entry now looks like this (last entry doubled):

OOoUserDict1
lang: <none>
type: positive
---
harxharx
hirxhirx
hirxhirx

5.3 Go to "Tools -> Options -> Language Settings -> Writing Aids -> User-defined dictionaries
-> "standard [All]" -> Edit", delete the last entry (hirxhirx), then click "close", then click "OK" (closing the Options-Menu) then close Writer

5.3.1 Your wordbook entry now looks like this (nothing got deleted):

OOoUserDict1
lang: <none>
type: positive
---
harxharx
herxherx
hirxhirx

Current behavior:

Deleting an entry (expect last) doubles last entry; deleting last entry is not working.

Expected behavior:

Deleting "harxharx" should result in:

OOoUserDict1
lang: <none>
type: positive
---
herxherx
hirxhirx

Deleting "herxherx" should result in:

OOoUserDict1
lang: <none>
type: positive
---
harxharx
hirxhirx

Deleting "hirxhirx" should result in:

OOoUserDict1
lang: <none>
type: positive
---
harxharx
herxherx

look like a duplicate to me too. closing this bug report.

a fix is already available in the 4.1.x branch, not yet backported into 4.0.x

You are right, seems like this is the same issue.

Although I cannot confirm the fix from Michael Meeks since the current beta of LibreOffice 4.1.0.1.0 (Build ID: 8a1cc1449c26b7b5a46f258aabf13c28a9dbebb) crashes after closing if you have created an user-dictionary by adding a new word (like "herxherx").
