As an experiment, I tried symlinking /usr/local/lib/libexttextcat.*
to libtextcat.= and /usr/local/include/libexttextcat to libtextcat
and built OO.  I've tried opening a couple of different types of files
and it seems to work so this might be an option.  I'll try and come
up with a proper patch to textproc/libexttextcat to bring it closer
to a dropin replacement to textproc/libtextcat.
