I hope you can also upload a few of them as attachments to the Bugzilla thread? My current test platform plan would be to install VirtualBox on our dual-boot home server, which runs Ubuntu 12.04 and LibreOffice. Then I would install Ubuntu 12.04 and OpenOffice on the VirtualBox. The resulting test environments should be alike enough - right? If I can take the time, I'll also produce test files on Windows XP - the only trouble is that my old laptop is a 32 bit and the dual-boot server is a 64 bit, but maybe that will not matter. I am about to find out... Thanks again for the detailed response!
