Yes! Yes! Yes!
I did a fresh install of OpenOffice after applying the patch. When the
installation completed I did a "make install-user" using my normal user.
All works as expected.
The system I'm running is STABLE as of:
js@fetis2.ninja.se:/home/js>uname -a
FreeBSD fetis2.ninja.se 4.6-RC FreeBSD 4.6-RC #8: Sun Jun 9 09:02:05
CEST 2002 js@fetis2.ninja.se:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ATHLON i386
This might indicate that with the applied patch, OpenOffice should be
installable and usable with the 4.6 Release.
Great job Martin and Matt!
