Hi

Unfortunately, I have no idea what might be causing Java to dump core on 
your system. But if you just want OOo up as quickly as possible, there 
are two ways I can think of:

1. Try running "make" again in the port's directory. It should start 
from where the crash happened and with a bit of luck, this time will get 
further.

2. Install a binary package. This for sure is the fastest and easiest 
way of getting OOo onto your system. Though it's not as satisfying as 
having your own home built OOo, of course ;).

On my system, BTW, compiling OOo 2.0.1 with JDK 1.4 and 1.5 installed 
works beautifully.

PS: I see you are running JDK 1.4 patch level 8. That patch is very new 
and it could be that it broke something that used to work in patch level 
7. If that's the case, we should start seeing more similar reports on 
this list soon.
