I frankly can't reproduce much,

If you could attach gdb and try to crash it with debug-symbols enabled it might be possible to trace the issue
But with current data there is no way how to fix this.

Created attachment 351714 [details]
output from "soffice --backtrace"

[Comment 3 Tomáš Chvátal (RETIRED) 2013-06-23 08:33:34 UTC]

You have to compile the office with  CFLAGS="-ggdb" and FEATURES=splitdebug.

Otherwise the trace is not usefull at all. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml

I can't reproduce this in my setup as I don't have scanner.
Please try to create the debug build or use binary version with debug useflag enabled to reproduce. And then report this issue upstream on bugs.freedesktop.org as this does not seem too gentoo-related.
