I am not able to reproduce this issue locally.  My LibreOffice is fairly
recent. (LibreOffice 3.5.2.2 Build ID: 281b639-6baa1d3-ef66a77-d866f25-f36d45f)

If I pass the corrupted file through an online validator [1], I get the
below error.  The culprit is the mimetype file.  Note the leading
whitespace and the trailing newline.  If I fix this extraneous
whitespace by hand, then I see that the reported corruption goes away.

I can confirm that ODT exporter, never creates the above leading and
trailing whitespaces.

Unless you hand-edited the ODT document, I think the error could be
because of one of the customizations you have.  (Do you have
`org-e-odt-prettify-xml' set to t.  If yes, what mode does mimetype file
open for you.  For me, mimetype opens in Fundamental mode.)
