 Bapt,
 
 No luck.  After a series of build failures (modules vcl, tail_build
 and others) which I was able to get around by following libreoffice's
 instructions for "hand building" those modules, there was finally
 a complete failure in tail_build.  Error message was:
 
 Abort trap (core dumped)
 File tested,Test Result,Execution Time (ms)
 file:///usr/ports/editors/libreoffice/work/libreoffice-core-3.5.2.2/lotuswordpro/qa/cppunit/data/pass/A14.lwp,Signal
 11 during cups initialization called, ignoring cups
 
 Error: a unit test failed, please do one of:
 
 export DEBUGCPPUNIT=TRUE            # for exception catching
 export GDBCPPUNITTRACE="gdb --args" # for interactive debugging
 export VALGRIND=memcheck            # for memory checking
 and retry.
 
 Note:  I did NOT do any of the last three tests.
 
 After multiple failures, even if I was able to get past them,
 it seems pretty clear that LO isn't going to build or work without
 cups or the "--without_ppds" config option.
