I've tried building with --disable-gallium-llvm, this does not help,
this is not really surprising since on Fedora both libreoffice and
mesa use the system llvm, so there should be no problems with them
expecting different llvm versions.

I've done some further debugging adding some debug printf-s to the
texture creation paths for nv3x, this bit is interesting, glretrace
does:

nv30_miptree_from_handle 1350x863 uniform_pitch 6144 usage 0 flags 0
nv30_miptree_create 1350x863 uniform_pitch 5440 usage 0 flags 0 bind 1 target 2

So it gets a texture from a handle, which I believe is the child-window
in which the animation will be shown, and then create another texture
with the same dimensions to serve as back buffer I presume.

ooimpress however does this:

nv30_miptree_from_handle 1350x863 uniform_pitch 6144 usage 0 flags 0
nv30_miptree_create 2700x1726 uniform_pitch 10816 usage 0 flags 0 bind a target 2
nv30_miptree_create 2700x1726 uniform_pitch 10816 usage 0 flags 0 bind 1 target 2

Notice how it is creating 2 (back?) buffers and they are twice the size of
the "sheet" area of impress to which the animation gets rendered.

I believe this is a clue to the root cause of the problem, but after this
I'm sorta stuck. Anyone got any hints on how to debug this further / where
to look ?

Thanks & Regards,

Hans
