Sigh! Thanks for your quick reply though. > Added sid to sources.list, apt-get update, apt-get install abiword, > started Abiword from a shell ... You're definitely using 2.8.1, right? (Asking because just adding sid to sources.list might not automatically result in the right thing.)

Seems the original problem described here is indeed gone. Note that I get some warning messages when using File->Quit even without having brought up the Print dialog. What happens when you click File->Quit immediately after starting? What happens when you open abiword, File->Print, cancel the printing, and then close abiword using the button on the window frame (or whatever your WM provides)? If it's indeed printing-related, a quick description of your setup and your printers.conf would be helpful, as well as a backtrace with debugging symbols (i.e. rebuilding abiword and libcups sources with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="noopt nostrip").
