LibreOffice isn't even GPL. It's Mozilla Public License (MPL). Still copyleft, but much more weakly so, because only MPL source files are required to stay MPL. You can mix MPL files with even proprietary source files, and you only have to distribute the changes to the original MPL files.
Though I suppose that might conflict with the Apache foundation in general. Don't they require Apache license for all their software?
