Sun's jdk is in the 1.5 taste also available as 64 bit for amd (there is a 64 bit itanium build of 1.4). 1.5 however has it's own share of issues ;-) in portage. That said installing a 32 bit jdk someway and running 32bit openoffice against it should work. Somewhere in the options menu you have the option to indicate the location of said jdk. Just make sure that java-config does not point to said 32bit jdk.
