I've also had an issue opening xls exports in libre office calc 4.2.7.2. I get a "General Error.
General input/output error" dialog and the export does not display. I had a poke around in the xls file (which is just xml) in a text editor and found in my export the following types of Cell elements were causing the problem:
<Cell ss:Index='2' ss:StyleID='story-color-0'>
I did a search and replace in the file, replacing ' with ' so that you get:
<Cell ss:Index='2' ss:StyleID='story-color-0'>
I could then open and view the file in libre office. Looks like an encoding issue with the export function.

Find and and replace with nothing. Not sure if this is a libre office limitation.
