Hello. I have just switched profiles and libreoffice built just fine for me before switching. Now I get the error:

Comment 4 foearb 2024-03-30 10:25:00 UTC
I don't know what is exactly causing this, but the problem is GCC 14. If you want to install libreoffice right now, you can switch to GCC 13 for this build.

Without digging any more into it, I would guess that libreoffice depends on some sort of transitive include of a C++ library header (specifically '<cstdlib>'), which puts the naked C functions in the 'std::' namespace, and upstream GCC removed that transitive include. That happens regularly with major releases of the big compilers.
Comment 5 Robert Greener 2024-04-01 19:02:03 UTC
Have submitted a PR that fixes this by backporting a patch from the 24.x branch:

https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/36049

Have also asked libreoffice if they can backport the patch upstream: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160464
