Working Here

I inserted a table into a LibreOffice Portable Writer 4.2.3 document and it worked without issue. Can you give some specific steps to reproduce your issue?

looking into bugzilla this issue is marked as resolved - which it is not.To me it had been reproducable: Inserted from the menu or the symbol-ruler the boarders are not visible nor can be made visible.
I droped 4.2.3

Local Version

Have you tried the same document with the local version? You can just install it temporarily to check. Or post the document and I'll check it. I think this may be a LibreOffice bug, which isn't reported to us, it's reported to the publisher.

Works Here

It works here under both local and portable 4.2.3. Are you sure you have Table Boundaries checked off under the Tables menu?

what to say - you have the screenshots, without any changes borders visible in 4.2.1 and non-visible in 4.2.3
I can not reproduce it, as I droped 4.2.3 and am now waiting for the update.

4.2.5 looks broken too

just for your guidance - may be someone is interested:
the first incoming issue-reports against the new version 4.2.5
on bugzilla read quite strange - maybe it is a good idea to
skip this version porting it to portable ...

(P.S.: The last 4.2.4 works quite well)

shall be made portable, who's decision is it?

If it's released, we make it portable.
