Mine is 3.24.28, if this is of any use; as I said, I have no problems.

Perhaps the windowing environment in use? In my case I switch between
xfce4 and, recently, lxqt ( which turned out to be rather nice
actually ). I have also kde4+plus the latest bits from kf5, mate and
gnome (incl. the recent wip/gnome4 stuff built, but I can't get it to
work at all).

I have tested the latest libreoffice on two virtual and one physical
installations of -current.
