Looks like the old version got deinstalled but the new one did not
install (for whatever reason). Normally, portupgrade should catch this
kind of situation and manually restore the old version (it creates a
temporary package for that purpose before deinstalling). There might be
something wrong with the OpenOffice.org port, but it also looks like
portupgrade is at least partly at fault.
Try installing the port manually:
cd /usr/ports/editors/openoffice.org-1.1
make && make install
[check if everything is OK now]
make clean
Of course, you can give make additional flags to toggle options and/or
build a localized versions.

PS: Since you'll have to rebuild OpenOffice.org anyway, you might as
well consider upgrading to 2.0.
PPS: If you don't feel like recompiling from scratch, you can use
packages from good-day net:
ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/FreeBSD/
