Openoffice 3.0.0 - spellchecker not functioning

I've installed en-openoffice.org-GB-3.0.0 from ports on my 6.4-RC1 
system. The install, using the command  
portinstall  -m "LOCALIZED_LANG=en-GB -DWITH_KDE" 
editors/openoffice.org-3, appeared to complete OK and I can 
run /usr/local/bin/openoffice.org-3.0.0-swriter but attempts to check 
spelling in a document with known spelling errors always fail to find 
any errors.

The "Available language modules" section in Tools - Options - Language 
Settings - Writing Aids" is empty, unlike my copy of Openoffice 2.3 
which has 3 entries in this section.

Should the language modules have been installed or have I missed 
anything when installing the port?
