I'm flying blind wrt bibisect (and git).  However I did
   clone git clone https://bibisect.libreoffice.org/linux-64-7.4.git
and got a version of soffice that renders rtf margins properly!!

ads at ADS4:~/Downloads/libreoffice/linux-64-7.4/instdir/program
$ ./soffice --version
LibreOfficeDev 7.4.8.0.0 f8ba7c6f77497e2dc7bfef8378511e2074ce01f9 
works!

But my LO 7.6.7.2 fails. Is this info of use to the assignee?

Now what? 

Thanks.
