BOTTOM LINE (even though it's at the top)
It appears openoffice-bin depends on some things that are not marked
in the ebuild.

My attempt to compile openoffice (not bin) failed due to disk space,
but not until about
8 dependencies had been compiled.  Openoffice-bin had not pulled them in.
I never did complete the compile.  I trimmed distfiles and packages
and in other ways
got up to 12 GB free space and emerged openoffice-bin.  It runs fine now.

This is not proof for various reasons, but I suspect the additional
dependencies did
the trick.  Or maybe it was disk space.  Not much else changed.
