There is no 'native' OpenOffice for OS/2. What you're paying for
is an Odin wrapper that makes the Windows version work on OS/2.
So, not only do you have the Windows bugs but also the Odin bugs.
Odin is like Wine for Linux. Even SmartSuite is not a native OS/2
app, but a Win32 port. It's more stable than the so-called OS/2
OpenOffice but more pricey. If you don't need to exchange docs
with Windows users than the free, native, StarOffice previously
mentioned being on Hobbes will more than suffice.
