This is caused by commit 6f5024de2e1a5cc533527e45b33d9a415467c48d. And it is not a bug, it works as intended. The minimal row height ensures that if the row content is shorter than the minimal value, then minimal value is used. In LO, when that minimal height couldn't fit to page, then the row didn't split to next page. But now we have fixed that, and when we flow to next page, we add the height to what was left on first page. E.g., in this file, the minimal row height is 27.56 cm, and page body height is only 29.7 cm - 2*2 cm = 25.7 cm. If there were no text in the row, then the first 25.7 cm should be on first page, and the rest of 1.86 cm should go to second. But there is much data in the row, it takes total of 48.05 cm, which puts 22.35 cm to the second page. That second page has yet another 3.35 cm free space left, which is taken by the text. That MS Word repeats the minimal height on each page is its own bug. Saying that, I must add that we cannot mimic its bug, because if we try to put the minimal height on each page, it will revert us to the previous state, where we won't be able to see the table below the first page. The proper way of fixing this is unfortunately to fix the document itself, by setting the text after the table to start on the next page.
I have to agree with Mike that this is a WONTFIX. The row has a minsize of 27.5cm - about the size of one page. Well, it covers two pages, so it ought to have satisfied the minsize of one page. That is a pretty weird decision on MS' part to apply the minimum to every page. (Probably it is an implementation error on their part that they have to live with.)
