RTL text with line break clear="right"

Open attached document. The text is in RTL writing mode. If the floating object is left, the clear="right" line break should be treated as normal line break. But that is not the case here.

The mirrored situation with clear="left" works as expected.

BTW, rendering in Word is faulty and not suitable for comparison.
