That is a very keen observation - I was not aware of that.

I did not know that I do not have libreoffice-gtk3 installed.
I am using the Cinnamon desktop environment, which is the default in the Debian
distribution variant I am using. I have not customized this Debian much at all.
The Debian package is: Debian package version: 1:7.0.4-3+gl0 
I installed only Libreoffice calc, as:

sudo apt-get install libreoffice-calc

When I list what would be installed by the full libreoffice suite, it still
does not include libreoffice-gtk3.  I don't know why it is not included.

I now manually installed libreoffice-gtk3, 
(via $ sudo apt-get install libreoffice-gtk3 )
and Libreoffice Calc correctly uses gtk3 and looks nicer.  This probably
bypasses the issue with the x11 back end.

Maybe further investigations should look at:
1) Why does this version of Debian not include or suggest the libreoffice-gtk3
package (I am using a Debian variant, but it may hold in regular testing
Debian)

2) The x11 fallback backend appears to have the issue; but maybe it is not used
much?
