We have come across a few documents that cause unrtf to hang.  We have tried running unrtf on these files with version 0.19.2 as well as the newest 0.21.0.  The command we are running is:


unrtf --nopict --text /PATH/TO/FILE


And here is a sample of the RTF that seems to cause the hang:


{\rtf1\ansi\deflang1033\ftnbj\uc1\par\uldb\par\ul0\par\plain\f1\fs20Foobar\par}


The version of 0.19.2 that was used is the default that came with Ubuntu 8.04.  The version of 0.21.0 that was used was compiled from source on a stock Ubuntu 8.04.

I'm not sure what other information might be needed, but if more is required I can certainly provide it.
