Found a tip to remove the package "openoffice.org-gtk" via Synaptic, although it didn't seem to fit my problem 100%: The tip basically said there's a problem with this package if you use themes other than "Human" - which I do use. But I gave it a try - and in my case, it solved the crashes. For the last hour or so, I did some weird, frantic acrobatics in Impress, actions that before the removal of the package would have crashed Impress soon. Also, started form a terminal, no warnings are displayed anymore. On the downside: The interface now looks historically gray, but I prefer stability over looks. Will retry with the next update of the OO software.
