Christian,

To answer your original question, you should get a German version of
OpenOffice.org from www.gentoo.de as Nguyen Kinh Luan says.

I don't understand why gentoo doesn't already set a user's locale
settings. If you want to test them on your system add these 6 lines to
you ".bashrc" file.

"
export LC_COLLATE=de_DE
export LC_CTYPE=de_DE
export LC_MESSAGES=de_DE
export LC_MONETARY=de_DE
export LC_NUMERIC=de_DE
export LC_TIME=de_DE
"

If you don't already have a ".bash_profile" file, you should also copy
/etc/skel/.bash_profile to your home directory.

After logging out, and logging back in you should find that parts of
your system now appear in German.

nb. I don't claim to be an expert here. Let us know if it doesn't work.
