Tried your file in OO.o 3.2.1.  Let me get you my USE flags for
reference: "cups dbus gstreamer gtk java ldap nsplugin opengl* pam
(-aqua) -bash-completion* -binfilter -debug -eds -gnome -kde
(-kdeenablefinal) -odk -templates"

I hope that's cool for you.  So I didn't build it with opengl, but I
did with bash-completion, and I changed make.conf since.

Anyway, if you ask me, libreoffice is still in the works in terms of
the ebuild.  I don't want to toot my own horn, but see
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=295268 which very well
indicates that the libreoffice ebuild was not derived from, nor
seriously considering past problems encountered by, the openoffice
ebuild.  IMO I'd hash it to a libreoffice problem, since I can open
your document over here.

Don't get me wrong, I'll be more than happy to switch to libreoffice,
but I'm not convinced, at the very least, that the Gentoo team has it
squared away yet.  No blame there, it's just as easily an upstream
problem.

But I really doubt it's a USE flag...

Cheers,
daid
