Hi Craig,

see my previous reply to Peter. Meanwhile, I was able to narrow down the issue 
a bit. It's only former 1.2x files which had been loaded into 1.3.3.1 and 
saved in the 1.3 format that cause the problems. See: 
http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=4082

The issue with unsaved changes or corrupted files, however remain. I'll try to 
narrow this down as well.
