SRU details:

= RATIONALE =
This is:
- is a severe regression hitting a lot of users -- it collected 17 duplicate 
stacktraces in the prerelease alone.

= RESOLUTION =
This bug is caused by the WeakReference at:

 http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/libs-
gui/vcl/unx/gtk/a11y/atkutil.cxx#69

tries to kill itself after UNO is already long gone on shutdown.

= REPRODUCING THE BUG =
TEST CASE:
Unfortunately, none. This depends on luck (or lack of luck) during the shutdown.

= REGRESSION POTENTIAL =
Potential regressions would effect the gtk accessibility bridge. The original 
patch has been written by another long-term LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org 
contributor (Caolán McNamara <caol...@redhat.com>) and is commited on the 
master and libreoffice-3-4 branch upstream. It has thus been discussed by 
multiple seasoned LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org developers on IRC when it was 
commited.

= RELEVANT PACKAGES =
The bug has been addressed in source package libreoffice-1:3.3.2-1ubuntu5 as 
uploaded to https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa . This is a joined 
SRU with bug 775608 because of LibreOffice package size. Attaching one debdiff 
with both fixes, but as the fixes are injected using patches in the build 
process, both are clearly separated.
