Steps to reproduce:

1) File > New > Drawing
2) Tools > Options > OO.org Draw > General > Scale = 1:1, Unit = inch
3) Draw a rectangle exactly 6.50 inches wide
4) Add a dimension line that shows the width of the rectangle
   (align by object snap)

** The attached drawing contains this state **

5) Change the scale to 1:120:
   Tools > Options > OO.org Draw > General > Scale = 1:120
   The dimension now correctly shows 780"
6) Change the units to "foot":
   Tools > Options > OO.org Draw > General > Unit of measurement = "foot"
   The dimension now incorrectly shows "65.17ft"
   It should show "65ft"

This error makes Draw unusable for large-scale drawings requiring feet as the
measurement unit.

Note that the sizes of both the rectangle and the dimension line are correct in
the Position and Size dialog: both show "65.00'".

I get exactly the same results starting out with "mm" as the measurement unit,
setting the rectangle width to 165.10mm (i.e., 6.50"), then scaling to 1:120
(dim line shows correct "19812mm"), then changing to feet: "65.17ft".
