Yes, okay, for the record:

On Debian Stable (Lenny), AMD64, withe 64 bit debs available from
libreoffice.org,
LibreOffice is not working perfectly.
the only thing is that the libcairo.so.2 in ./opt/libreoffice/basis3.3/program
must be removed (I don't know why, but it impedes the program from
working correctly,
and debian has it's own libcairo.so.2 in /usr/lib, which works fine
(may require installation in some instances?  simple as aptitude
install libcairo)

I've also been using LO on my other debian/lenny machine (regular x86)
for a few months now.
It's great.
