Hi, compared to the latest version found at [1], the version of POLE inside libmso includes a number of bug fixes and code to detect invalid and corrupt files in the Windows Compound Binary File Format. It's not maintained as a separate library, It's simply part of libmso. And you should know it's fine tuned to files produced by MS Office, so it might be required to disable a bunch of blocks of code.
In Calligra, libgsf has been superseded by libmso. Check the powerpoint or msword-odf filter for proper usage. Look for the readStream function in the mswordodfimport.cpp file, which reads a stream from a specific storage into a buffer.
