Please see my survey results in bug 49942:
  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49942#c15

In short words, you can upgrade to LibreOffice 3.6.2 (a pre-relase is already
available from
  http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/
) and this bug will be gone.

But, as I state at the end of my comment, there is at least one issue with
Cinch and LibreOffice which is still reproducible (I will do some further
testing). So, if you do not need Cinch very much, it may be save to deactivate
it, at least temporarily, when you are working mainly with LibreOffice for some
hours.

About alternatives to Cinch -- I am not an expert here, but the problem is that
other Mac window management utilities like Moom, RightZoom, BetterSnapTool etc.
all use Apple’s accessibility features, too, just like Cinch, so that they
suffer from the same stability issues as Cinch. At the moment, I hope we have
fixed the most important of these issues now, but I can not guarantee that
there are not left some more ... :-(

So, if you really like Cinch, just stay with it and report any crashes/hangs
you still experience with LibreOffice while running Cinch -- it would help us
very very much if for each such crash/hang you would immediately test if you
can reproduce it without Cinch, too (then this is probably a normal LibreOffice
bug), or only with Cinch running (then this bug would be related to Cinch/Mac
accessibility features, so please inform me about this bug by adding my
address: [email protected] to the CC list of the bug report).

Thank you very much!
