Update: I think it's worth noting that simply because this module hasn't worked for a long time if at all, this doesn't that this is impossible.

I'm not convinced that it hasn't, last release was 05 Jul 2010 so it worked 2-3 years ago, not a very long time

Maybe it require an older version of openoffice? Maybe it require a patch for newer version of openoffice?

update: test report that it works mentions OpenOffice.org2.0_SDK

issue in Bug #36157 for OpenOffice-UNO: Compilation failure with OpenOffice 2.3 is cannot find -lsalhelper3gcc3 which is a missing dependency -- according to other reports salhelper3gcc3 certainly should come with openoffice
