There's no need to use Word to reproduce.
Steps:

1. Create a new text document in Writer.
2. Add a table (Table->Insert Table...; Ctrl+F12) with 100 rows and 99 heading
rows (the dialog doesn't allow to set the heading rows number equal or greater
than total number of rows).

This creates a table which goes outside the page, and an "empty" second page is
shown (with the single mandatory paragraph after the table).

3. In table properties (Table->Properties...), Text Flow tab, reduce the
heading row count to 98.

This makes the table to take two pages, each one having the table heading rows
visible and going outside the page (apparent if you put some text to cells),
with third "empty" page. What happens is the layout code doesn't split the
table by heading rows; instead, it keeps outputting heading rows (going outside
of the page in the process) and one normal row, then it is able to split table,
which it does (going to the next page); there, it first outputs the 98 heading
rows (again, going outside of the page) and one normal row.
