Oh, yes.  The X11 in Leopard is completely new, based on a different
upstream codebase and with myriad changes.  We've been talking about
several things that it broke (although it has some nice features,
too).
You can revert to the X11 that came with Tiger if it's causing
headaches for you.

In the case of OpenOffice, I would also suggest that you give
NeoOffice a try - it's an Aqua reimplementation of OpenOffice, no X11
required.  Since it's Java, it's slower, which is a deal-breaker for
some people, but I've been happy with it myself.  Not that I won't
still be happy when OpenOffice finishes their own native Aqua port.
