I was able to "solve" it by using another machine. Am I the only one
experiencing this?

When I imported the hyphenated text from my other machine the 
hyphenations where still in place and when I changed something, the 
hyphenations also would change accordingly, as it should. But if I 
reverted all the hyphenations in a story, then I still could not bring 
it back on my main machine (the amd64, as mentioned above).

Perhaps something is just wrong in my installation, but I do not know 
what :-/
