I too have this exact same problem. It seems that the openoffice-ximian-1.3.5-r1 ebuild is broken. I would post the output of the emerge on my box, but, it's almost 100% the same as this person's output.
As an ammendum to my previous comment... I very well might have run clear out of space. Before I started anything, I had 3.2gb free. After it gave the error, I had 650mb.
This does really look like an "out of space" problem. Do you still get that?
Seems like not enough free space, unfortunately OOo needs a lot of it.
