Hi,
I made the new downloading script the default, so that any errors can be
found soon. Maybe it can then be integrated into the 3.4.1 branch.

One wish for the future .. hmm.. if I use the external
package (for example for python) it would be nice to
disable downloading the corresponding tarballs too.
I added most of the guards.
That is possibly now by just changing the data file. I
provided the script. We all can provide the data.
There are other things to do, not necessary but nice to
have:
- Fill in the missing original download sites.
- Solve the issues with mismatching MD5 sums.
- (mentioned above) Guard more libraries with the same flags
that control in their makefiles whether they are build.
Oh, BTW, I didn't carry the checksummed license texts
in ooo-extras: they are simply useless for building.
I moved the relevant parts of the texts to the download
descriptions, it seemed more reasonable to have there.
Good idea.
I am thinking of adding support for binary blobs
in both rhino and saxon as the Apache policy is OK
about carrying Java binaries.
Good idea, provided that the license of the libraries allows us to put
the pre-build packages, with the applied patches, on a server.
