As expected.

No. (Or better: Tell that Sun)

Wrong. -gcj is just for acceleration for the gcj case. You can just choose
the gij JRE ("Free Software Foundation") in the options and use gcj.

That Suns JDKs (5 and 6) do not work (only on amd64, though) is known,
but that's apparently a Sun JDK bug and as Sun JDK is binary-only this
is not even fixable so I won't reassign but just close this bug.

amd64 -> use gcj
Rest -> choice (but better use gcj)

Regards,

Rene

P.S: it's openoffice.org, not openoffice. Thanks for calling the
application and package right next time, thanks
