First off, perhaps you could at the very least capture a screenshot with the
corruption. Often your typical screenshotting tools (e.g imagemagick import or
the print screen utils of desktop envs) are able to capture such rendering
corruptions?

Secondly, I don't think I would be able to get LibreOffice on my already rather
out of date Geode (gentoo) system anytime soon, so a cairo-trace of this would
be useful - if the rendering corruption is drawn via cairo (nothing to blame on
cairo; just then we can capture the drawing commands to reproduce without LO).
Launching LO with something like "cairo-trace lowriter", doing the minimum to
reproduce the corruption and exiting; then if compressing the resulting trace
file is small enough to attach here, it might be useful, as we can replay the
drawing commands without LibreOffice then. Keep in mind that anything drawn by
the application via captureable methods would also be seen in trace replay, so
no secret documents please :)

Other than that, it would be useful to check with 16bit depth - iirc the
default, you set to 24bit in your config, which is then less tested.
Also, does the corruption go away if you disable any hardware acceleration by
turning "NoAccel" to True?

What are you trying to achieve with the ExaScratch option? I'm not sure such an
option exists in the first place, but if it does, it might be doing something
bad there.
