.ods file containing some superscripting and subscripting

When a Calc worksheet containing superscripted and/or subscripted text is saved in .xlsx format, the superscripting/subscripting is either removed altogether, or the characters to which it applies are switched.

Steps:
1. Open a Calc .ods file with super- and/or subscripted text.
2. Save a copy of that file in .xlsx format.
3. Open the .xlsx version of the file.
4. Weep.

Current Behavior: sub/superscripting is misapplied to other characters in the cell, or removed altogether.

Expected Behavior: The characters retain their formatting.

Looks like a duplicate of bug 92296 which was fixed for 5.1. 

If anyone wants a backport to 5.0, give me a shout, there's still 1 bugfix release to go
