Eric,

Have you considered installing the pre-compiled packages?  If you aren't 
aware, they are available at:
http://projects.imp.ch/openoffice/
I have installed the 1.1 version on both fbsd 4.9 and 5.2.1 - they work 
fine for me although I haven't done extensive work with oo on either sys.

HtH,
Steve Fettig
