Or for example in firefox:

<text:s/>
in Amsterdam
<text:s/>

So, probably yes. If it doesn't have a text attribrute if you iterate 
over it using OOopy for example:

     o   = OOoPy (infile = fname)
     c = o.read ('content.xml')
     for x in c.getiterator():
         if x.text:

Then we know for sure you have recreated my other problem.
