I haven't used openoffice.org-draw very much but haven't had the experience you found but I got the impression that the suggestions made by Joe Smith are more to your solving your issue. Lately I've been using inkscape. If you do did figure out what happened, can certify that it's a repeatable problem, you should probably add it to bugzilla.
