Screenshot of the area of the document showing the render error

I have only noticed this today, several weeks after moving to 6.1.2.1.
At times when I scroll text into view, instead of the text I expect to see, the
string "!broken!!" or possibly "!br0ken!!" is displayed.  See attached
screenshot.

I have only seen the document in one file I'm editing (the manuscript for my
current book).

The error seems to occur very occasionally, when I scroll the page down a
little  to reveal more text.

It happened earlier today and I saved, exited LO, and then reopened all files. 
The error was cleared, document seemed fine.

This time I decided to search for a mention of the bug, and when I failed to
find a mention I started entering this bug.

I selected the area of text pasted and it to a terminal window, confirming that
the actual text was as expected.

Scrolling away and back does not clear the error, but it worries me that some
corruption may have occurred.

Just now I "shaded" / "rolled-up then rolled down" the LO window, trying to get
the correct text to appear, and now and LO has become unresponsive, and CPU has
gone to 100% for the process.  Can't click into the text body, can't make any
menu pull down, can't use keyboard short-cuts.  This applies to all four
documents I have open currently.  Has been locked-up for about 15 mins.  I will
have to Force Quit and hope I haven't lost too much work.

Completed.  Yes, all work after my last manual save had been lost.
