It is possible to replicate the problem with a new document as follows:
Open a new spreadsheet
Enter some text in first cell (this is just so that we can later see that we 
have opened the spreadsheet ok)
Save the file,  say testit.ods and close the file.
>From a terminal in appropriate directory check that it opens ok with
libreoffice --calc testit.ods
Select Tools > Macros > Organize Macros > LibreOffice Basic
Click Organiser
Select testit.ods
Click New
Leave name as Module1 and click OK
Click New
Change name to ThisWorkbook and click OK
Click Close and Close again
Save the document
Close the document

Open the document again using
libreoffice --calc testit.ods
The error
Entity: line 1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
is seen in the terminal and the spreadsheet opens apparently empty.  Close it.
Open using
libreoffice testit.ods
and it opens ok.

The bug is a regression as I have not changed the macros in my original
document for many months and it was ok using LibreOffice up till about
two months ago.  So I assume that an update around that time introduced
the problem.
