We just had the same case on IRC and it turned out to be a corrupt
file. 

2:13 < _rene_> crashes after/when reading this:
22:13 < _rene_> 15252 
open("/var/spool/openoffice/uno_packages/cache/registry/com.sun.star.comp.
22:13 < _rene_> deployment.component.PackageRegistryBackend/Linux_x86_.rdb", 
                O_RDWR) = 56
22:13 < _rene_> try to remove it
22:13 < _rene_> (and then reinstall all extension packages)

He removed the whole directory (com.sun.star.comp.deployment.component.PackageRegistryBackend; you can also remove everything below cache if you wish)
and then it works. (Of course if you want all the extensions then you
need to reinstall the packages; ignore the errors about not existing extensions
before unpacking, they're expected in this case)

I'll now try to debootstrap an old squeeze wizth 1:3.1.1-8, install
OOo with some extensions and upgrade...

Grüße/Regards,

René
