editors/openoffice-1.1 is not marked as broken on my system. However, it
takes forever to compile, so I never did finish it to verify that it
indeed does compile, but I have no reason not to think it will.
You can find precompiled packages here:
http://oootranslation.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/ooomisc/FreeBSD/
There you'll find OOo 1.1.3 for both 4.10 and 5.3
