I didn't find some 'setup' or whatever script. Anyway, I don't want to install over my ordinary 'operational' OO nor delete/overwrite its settings etc.

How can I run the solver version completely separate from the operational one?

I usually build with rpm and install it into my home directory, as different versions live side-by-side, although they share one ~/.openoffice.org2 (and sometimes one .config ). You might save this somewhere, or you could consider working as a different user.

The output tree does not contain a running installation, but it contains an installation package. This could be rpm, deb or something, it depends what you configured for example "--with- package=rpm" else it takes the default for the build platform distribution. You can re-package for rpm or whatever you like this way, there is no need to re-build.
export PKGFORMAT=rpm
cd instsetoo_native
build

The installation sets are in instsetoo_native/unxlngs.pro/ (product) / install/ (lang)
There are three products OpenOffice.org, OpenOffice.org_SDK and URE

You can move these somewhere to keep them safe in case you make a new one.

The install script is on mirrors in openoffice.org/developer/ install_scripts

To create a new OOo installation in ~/m192 I run it like this with absolute paths
$ ./install_linux.sh /path/to/rpm /home/jim/m192

There are other ways and some probably better, but this will get you started quickly. Look in instsetoo_native/util/makefile.mk for more options. You can build the different targets in there, using dmake. There are some improvements on the way, that will create a ready to run installation.
