I have sr-openoffice.org-3.1.20081009/, i.e. openoffice.org-3-devel
compiled with

  'editors/openoffice*' => [
        'LOCALIZED_LANG=sr',
        'WITHOUT_CUPS=yes',
        'WITH_SYSTEM_FREETYPE=yes',
        'WITH_SYSTEM_ICU=yes',
  ]

on FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE #0: Sun Oct 12 (i386) and I have all 3
sections in Tools -> Options -> Language Settings -> Writing Aids.

The OpenOffice.org dictionaries page says:

        IMPORTANT NOTE: From OpenOffice.org 3.0 on the dictionary wizard
        is not longer available -- Dictionaries are now available via
        the extensions repository.

                [http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Dictionaries]

So, the OpenOffice.org-3 users are supposed to download .oxt files and
run them. However, I experienced the 'bad transfer url' problem with all
extension files; this was reported on FreeBSD mailing lists in the past
with no available solution.

Happily, the instruction from the same page (DictOOo-Wizard, intended
for OpenOffice.org-2) worked just fine in my OpenOffice-3. I downloaded

  
http://ftp.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/contrib/dictionaries/dicooo/DicOOo.sxw

and it worked like a charm, installing Hunspell Spellchecker module and
dictionary files.

Hope this helps.
