To test this bug, I replicated the steps provided by 'charleschen'. The process
was performed on two systems: one running Windows 8. Pro, and another one
running Mac OS X 10.9.5.
Both of these systems were running Apache OpenOffice 4.1.1
(AOO411m6(Build:9775)-Rev. 1617669)

The steps are: 

1. Create a new text document in Apache OpenOffice Writer.
2. Select "Insert" from the menu bar.
3. Move mouse to "Picture" and then select "From File" from the pop-up menu.
4. Insert a picture.
5. Right click the inserted picture.
6. Move mouse to "Anchor" (that is a part of the list) and then select "To
Page" or "To Paragraph" from the
pop-up menu.
7. Save this document as .doc (Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP) file.
8. Close this document.
9. Open the saved document, and again right click the picture and select
"anchor" option and we will observe that the setting has been changed to -> "To
Character".

I was quite intrigued by this and therefore I also tried it on a MAC computer.
After this I repeated the process and set the anchors (initially) to 'To
Character' and to 'As Character'. And both of these anchor values remained as
it is after reopening the document. 

So, I was successfully able to replicate this bug.
