Thanks for the hint... After modyfing lib/libsal364.so as well
Staroffice 4.0 SP3 is running here.

So the complete instructions are:

1. Unpack the sp3 distribution
2. cd into the Install directory (where setup.bin is)
3. sed -e 's,/proc/%u/cmdline,/compat/linux/so,' < setup.bin > setup.new
4. mv setup.new setup.bin
5. chmod 755 setup.bin
6. touch /compat/linux/so
7. ./setup

The install program should run and install StarOffice. Maybe I missed some
step but this is closely what I have done.

Then, after installing it, go to the lib directory and do the sed command
on libsal364.so:

1. sed -e 's,/proc/%u/cmdline,/compat/linux/so,' < libsal364.so > libsal364.new
2. mv libsal364.new libsal364.so
3. chmod 755 libsal364.so

The new /compat/linux/so path can be anything that does not exceed the 16 
characters. It only has to point to an empty file...
