Actually we (upstreamers) were going to use the same OpenOffice.org1.0 but
since there have been changes in the format of the hyphenation
dictionaries and movements of dictioarnies to cetralized shared locations
then the old ~/OpenOffice.org1.0 user dicrectory contents conflicted with
these changes and we were forced to rename it to prevent errors.
