with this attachment: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=51359 the embedded Math OLE thing is displayed wrongly on current master, but strangely only on Windows, it looks right on Linux. it looks like various special math symbols are mapped to weird non-math symbols, perhaps a font issue? used to work in LO 4.0.1.1 on Windows.
So I just grabbed http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/Win-x86@6-debug/current/master~2013-09-03_00.55.02_LibreOfficeDev_4.2.0.0.alpha0_Win_x86.msi and installed it and I don't see immediately anything visually wrong vs linux Are we talking about the image at the end of page 7 ?
(In reply to comment #1) > Are we talking about the image at the end of page 7 ? oh there's another one, didn't notice that, it looks okay here. the broken one (2 actually) is on top of page 6
Created attachment 85118 [details] screenshot They look the same to me, so presumably you don't see ^^^this^^^, right ? Maybe opensymbol isn't being found for some reason. How about format->bullets and numbers, are they busted in the previews, or do they look right and/or does the font dropdown list show opensymbol in a blank new document ?
ok it turns out the symbol font can't be found; on this VM i never had LO actually installed so the fonts only exist in the installation dir and since the removal of the Brand/Basis split this didn't work; not sure how exactly it worked for me with 4.0 on another VM... fixed on master.

so it appears that if the MSI is actually installed (without /a) then the fonts are copied to C:/Windows/Fonts dir and so this bug should only affect installations with msiexec /a or from archive / dev-install.
