Interesting...
setup.ins isn't necessary /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.0/program/setup
just calls setup.bin, also in /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.0/program.

Two things.
1) I'm running -STABLE (i.e. 4.7-RC)
2) since it appears you still have the binaries laying around try:
        as root:
		make deinstall
                rm -rf /usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.0
                make install
        as user:
                make install-user

if that fails to work (and adding a make clean also fails to work)...
I have no clue????
