Yes -- that was the problem!

I reedited the DWord and I was able to install (at least partially) Open
Office. At least it completed what it was doing without a trap error this
time. Hooray for that.

I still don't see any executable files for starting Open Office, so I may
have to go back and try reinstalling again. But first, I want to read the
docs a little more thoroughly.
