(Get the code!)
In libreoffice 4.2.8 on Ubuntu 14.04, when the program crashes (or is made to crash with pkill -11), apport kicks in. At the next libreoffice run, it offers the user to try and recover the document that was being worked on when the crash occurred.
In contrast, in libreoffice 5.1.6 on Ubuntu 16.04, when the program crashes, its built-in document recovery handler kicks in, offering the user to recover the document immediately. In that case, the built-in handler is hooked to a SIGSEGV handler that prevents the creation of a core file.
