I've got OpenOffice (compiled), v3.0.0 here.  It appears broken.
I haven't tried a lot of things, but this little RTF file
gets it wedged right
away: the console that started it says:

error - missing word count in dictionary file
Hash Manager Error : 4

So I'm guessing there's a problem in a spell checker.  Where would I
look to solve that?

You need to emerge --sync again (there's an update to the ebuild, but
no version increment IIRC) and rebuild openoffice.

I really wish they wouldn't do that, especially for hang or crash
bugs.  I know people without the problem don't want to recompile OOo,
but it's annoying to have to watch bugzilla or the changelog to see if
the ebuild has been fixed.

I agree. This should only be done for build problems, not runtime problems. I think there's even a policy in place for that; if it doesn't build, change the ebuild. If it crashes at runtime, bump the revision.
