Here is my fix.  I modified 
/usr/local/openoffice-3.4.0/openoffice.org3/program/bootstraprc by 
changing:
UserInstallation=$ORIGIN/../.openoffice.org/3
to:
UserInstallation=$SYSUSERCONFIG/.openoffice.org/3

Does anyone else see their user directory being created under 
/usr/local/openoffice-3.4.0/openoffice.org3/.openoffice.org?
