Here's another (untested) solution posted in response to my thread on linuxquestions.org: "You can switch to the old engine in the menu: Tools > Options > Advanced. Then click Open Expert Configuration, search for TextLayoutEngine, and double-click the result ? change it to "old", save and restart LibreOffice."
