I was originally running into the segfault reported earlier. I got past it by doing 'FEATURES="-sandbox" emerge -u openoffice'. Shortly after that point (bootstrap), it starts building the project helpcontant and errors out immediately. Error: Configure completed You may now run /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.1.1/work/oo_1.1.1_src/bootstrap in /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.1.1/work/oo_1.1.1_src ***** WARNINGS ISSUED ***** * Bootstrapping OpenOffice.org... * Building OpenOffice.org... build -- version: 1.86.18.1 ============= Building project helpcontent ============= /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.1.1/work/oo_1.1.1_src/helpcontent/unx/schart dmake: makefile.mk: line 70: Error -- Include file settings.mk, not found ERROR: Error 65280 occurred while making /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.1.1/work/oo_1.1.1_src/helpcontent/unx/schart !!!

Apparently, I had dmake emerged separately. That was conflicting with the version that Openoffice builds for the compile. I unmerged dmake and it looks like everything is working fine.
This is fixed now, thanks for reporting
