Librecad dimensions are very basic, and can only produce a subset of visual representations possible in autocad.  I had worked on a few of those issues, and my progress was summarized in:

I had made a proposal to improve dynamic leader extensions to model autocad in this comment:

but the work has not started.  Besides this, there are probably more things to fix.

In short, even if we fixed any bugs (if there are any) related to DXF parsing, librecad just doesn't have a fully implemented dimensions, relative to autocad.
