Hope this helps,

Thanks Joshua. This is what I wanted to hear.

I figured out what the problem is. The Mac version of LDD expects imported
LDraw files to have Unix line endings (LF), and silently fails if the line
endings are in another format. Ironically, it exports CRLF as one would
expect.

If you convert the LDraw file to Unix line endings, it imports correctly
(well, as close to "correct" as LDD provides with its finicky restrictions).

Does anybody know how I can report this bug and actually have it get to the
people it needs to get to?

I can do it.  ;-)

I got to meet the architect for LDD at Brickcon.

Consider it done. :)
