Hi,

Because gcc31 and libstd++ and stlport are unusable for OpenOffice
to build. Exceptions are broken. Optimazations are broken.

Because some users like to try OpenOffice even if they use
CURRENT ?

If you like to help me you can fix:

ports/devel/stlport

so it doesn't coredump anymore doing the tests. Which means
fixing gcc31 in CURRENT, since the package was build on STABLE
with gcc31 from ports.
