Something missing here?

 From the error message, I would guess the problem is somewhere in the 
Makefile you find in work/OOO310_m11/packimages/pack

Look for a line in that Makefile that looks something like

cd ../unxfbsdi.pro/misc && gzip -d -c 
/usr/ports/editors/openoffice.org-3/work/OOO310_m11/external_images/ooo_crystal_images-1.tar.gz 
| ( tar -xf - ) && touch crystal.flag

Replace it with something like

(cd ../unxfbsdi.pro/misc && gzip -d -c 
/usr/ports/editors/openoffice.org-3/work/OOO310_m11/external_images/ooo_crystal_images-1.tar.gz 
| ( tar -xf - ) && touch crystal.flag) || true

I think that this Makefile only exists after an aborted build attempt.

Anyway, this worked for me.  I really didn't know any more than I think 
you know - it was a case rather of "just try it and see."

If you have already done a make clean, then I think after the make 
extract, you will only find a file called makefile.mk in that directory. 
  But a line that looks something like

cd $(MISC) && gzip -d -c $(CRYSTAL_TARBALL) | ( tar -xf - ) && $(TOUCH)
$(@:f)

could be modified in an analogous way, and I suspect that would work 
just fine as well.
