Sorry, I can't reproduce the crash, as I work around it, and the text 
frame that regularly produced the crash when I tried to edit the text 
in it is no more...

Scribus Version 1.3.5svn
Build date: 23 March 2008
Build ID: C-C-T-F-C1.4.14

I'm investigating the style issue further, and will file a bug report.

Thanks for all your brilliant work. I'm using Scribus for more than 3 
years now, and I'm generally very pleased.

Andreas
