 I have analysed this and I think I know what happens.
 
 Before I will prepare a real fix the workaround is to ask OpenOffice to
 use system libz.so.
 
 I think adding "--with-system-zlib" in the Makefile CONFIGURE_ARGS will do.
 
 Unfortunately, one has to fully recompile the OpenOffice after changing
 this.
 
 This bug has been reported upstream already:
 
 http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=85124
 
 Can anybody test whether using system zlib fixes this problem?
