The holy avenger SETS your magic resistance to 50, doesn't add. So whenever you reequip it (i.e. us it to back open a chest or change weapons, or even load in) you have to reequip all the other items to get the extra bonus. I think someone here posted a patch to change it, you could try a search.
If I asked, would you answer? Its your problem. Its a deep, deep problem. I have no way to ask about that... I have no elegant way of stepping into your heart without tracking in filth. So I will wait. Someday, when you want to tell me, tell me then. -Bleach

This is not a bug, since if you read the description of the sword, it say that it set magic resistance to 50%. So - as Zelgadis said - your magic resistance will be set to 50 whenever you equip the sword. It is possible to change it, but then it will be a bonus of 50%, instead of setting to 50%.
