[Libreoffice] desktop menu entries broken without compat-oowrapper

The ArchLinux package does not use the --with-unix-wrapper=foo nor the
new --with-compat-oowrappers switches.

In RC3 the lo-wrapper changes seem to break stuff:

* startcenter seems ok,
* base,calc,impress,draw menu entries are shown but won't start "oobase
  %U" missing. their TryExec entry seems ok but the Exec entry needs to
  be changed to lo...
* math, template also need that Exec change though they are hidden
* writer,web have the proper Exec entry but the TryExec is the old
  oowriter that makes the menu not showing this entry


Why are these files installed? Are they of any use? They look very
different to the ones in /usr/share/applications/:

libreoffice /usr/lib/ooo-3.3/share/xdg/base.desktop
libreoffice /usr/lib/ooo-3.3/share/xdg/calc.desktop
libreoffice /usr/lib/ooo-3.3/share/xdg/draw.desktop
libreoffice /usr/lib/ooo-3.3/share/xdg/impress.desktop
libreoffice /usr/lib/ooo-3.3/share/xdg/javafilter.desktop
libreoffice /usr/lib/ooo-3.3/share/xdg/math.desktop
libreoffice /usr/lib/ooo-3.3/share/xdg/printeradmin.desktop
libreoffice /usr/lib/ooo-3.3/share/xdg/qstart.desktop
libreoffice /usr/lib/ooo-3.3/share/xdg/startcenter.desktop
libreoffice /usr/lib/ooo-3.3/share/xdg/writer.desktop
