A Google search revealed that

http://www.bsd4us.org/tips/

suggested that I might want to "set the environment 
LC_ALL=en_US.ISO8859-1" which I did using

setenv LC_ALL en_US.ISO8859-1

in my .cshrc, I use "tcsh".

This eliminated the message, but OO 2.0RC3 and FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE are not 
yet agreeing on languages - I got some errors that "en" was not a 
recongized language when viewing the help pages.

The message I got viewing the "XML" entry in the help system was

Warning [code:465] 
[URI:file:///usr/local/openoffice.org2.0.RC3/help/main_transform.xsl]
[line:430] [node:element '<xsl:apply-templates>']
   international sorting unavailable on this system - sorting naively

The source tarball is RC3 dated 10/14/2005.

I had to change from the usual linux_base-8 to SUSE 9.3 to get the jdk to 
compile (no idea why), replace bison with bison-devel, and install 
NET:SMTP.pm in order to get OpenOffice 2.0RC3 to compile (this system 
started life as a 5.21-RELEASE system, so I don't know if this is 
representative of a 5.4-RELEASE system upgraded to -STABLE).
