Gretha, regarding your comments in the Bug Description:
+ "This ability to select Document Compare options (via Tools > Options...) has now been dropped again in LibreOffice 3.3.2..."
The same Document Compare options in OOo are still found in LO at Tools -> Options -> LibreOffice Writer -> Changes.
+ "Note: Document Comparison also still does not work at all in footnotes. Two documents with differences only in the text of footnotes are erroneously flagged as identical."

Quoting from http:// help.libreoffic e.org/Common/ Compare_ Document:
"When in Writer: The contents of footnotes, headers, frames and fields are ignored."
