This help text is outdated. The current english text in the General Glossary file shared/00/00000005.xhp of the online help goes like this:

Docking

Some windows in StarOffice, for example the Styles and Formatting window and the Navigator, are "dockable" windows. You can move these windows, re-size them or dock them to an edge. On each edge you can dock several windows on top of, or alongside each other; then, by moving the border lines, you can change the relative proportions of the windows.

To undock and re-dock, double-click a vacant area in the window. In the Styles and Formatting window, you can also double-click a gray part of the window next to the icons.

Those instructions are also wrong or at least incomplete. The Help in OOo2.0.2 is, I believe, correct; at least it works for me (WinXP SP2) and Dan Lewis says it works on his Linux box. The help says to use CTRL+double-click. Double-click does not work for me; CTRL+double-click does work. I have not had a chance to check the Mac.

If double-click works for some people and CTRL+double-click for others, I can say that when I revise the "Menus and Toolbars" chapter. BTW, I will also update the bit on docking/undocking in Chapter 1 of the Writer Guide and also check the other books to see if it's mentioned and change it if necessary.
