If I remember correctly, the problem is caused by special characters
inserted when opening or importing a Word document. Once the FM file
contains these characters that hinders searching and spell-checking,
it's quite possible they stay there. The patch may not try to fix
documents that already are "infected", but it may correct the
import filter that causes the problem, for future import operations.

The above reasoning makes sense from a programming perspective...
