I was using X11 version 1.0. I upgraded to X11 1.1.1 and it's working.

1. downloaded appropriate openoffice binary from openoffice.org (i.e.
openoffice for 10.4.x, powerPC platform).
2. From downloaded file, mounted disk image and dragged OpenOffice.org 2.2into 
my applications directory.
3. First time I double lanuch openoffice.org, I get the two windows
prompting me to load system and user loaded fonts.
4. X11 xterm then launches. Openoffice2.log at this time reads "2007-04-29
18:45:54 (Scripts/main) Running OpenOffice.org"
5. xterm remains, but openoffice then disappears from the dock.

The readme says I need a third party window manager like KDE or gnome. is
the X11 library not sufficient?
