You can try resuming the emerge from where it left (I know that
OpenOffice takes forever to compile). See 'man ebuild' for all details.
Generally a

'ebuild <path_to_ebuild_file> compile preinst install postinst qmerge
merge clean'

does the trick. You then have to unmerge the old version of
the package manually, if it exists (i.e. you were upgrading from an
older version).
