The only problem I can see right now is that XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX seem to treat Linux Libertine in rather different ways. Not sure where this is coming from, but when I execute:

\newlength\tmp
\setlength\tmp{\widthof{Heute, mit einigen Jahrzehnten Abstand}}
\showthe\tmp

XeLaTeX outputs 174.54298pt and LuaLaTeX outputs 179.13103pt.
So any differences between the engines that you're seeing needs to take this into account.
(I wonder why it happens, though! It happens even with a plain \font command. And it's not due to different space sizes.)
