Due to the fact that the OOo people can't release amd64 builds, you
cannot use OOo-bin-2 with java currently. We are working on providing
both 32bit and 64 bit JREs side by side which will help solve the
problem. In the mean time you could try to hack out the java
installs, but I imagfine this would only screw your machine up
further. USE="-java" does allow you to install OOo-bin-2 however.
I have had "success" building it on AMD64 platform, in regards to java.
However the emerge fails when building OOo2's internal BerkleyDB.

However in the light of Mike's comments I guess this is why
openoffice-bin was the "solution" for me in the end ;)
Would it be possible to build a 32bit java and install it onto the amd64
system, and use that? ie, would it work if we simply ran a 32bit jdk?
sun-java is only 32bit isn't it?
Naturally this would not be ideal :(
I confess I don't know much.
