Rendering of marker-start at the beginning of a subpath

Hello members,

I have come across a bug report for LibreOffice [1], telling that a 
special .svg graphic looks different in LibreOffice and Inkscape.

The problem is, whether a marker-start is shown at the beginning of a 
subpath.

There had been a similar bug report for Inkscape [2]. It mentioned 
"reading the spec".

I have made a sample document and I have taken screen shots of the 
rendering in some applications. Find the sample document and the screen 
shots in [3].

I tried to determine the correct rendering but do not find an answer. I 
hope you can tell me the correct rendering and/or point me to a place in 
the spec.

It would be nice, if you can provide a picture of the correct rendering 
of my sample document.
