OpenOffice.org Linux/MIPS (EL)

I have ported Slackware 12.0 to little-endian MIPS on the
Loongson
processor and have tried many times to build OpenOffice.org
but
haven't succeeded yet.

The error I get even after rebuilding binutils, glibc and
gcc
multiple times is the following:

This is based on a patch that I received from Lemote for
building on MIPS. I have also tried to figure out how the
MIPS support differs from PPC and could send those diffs
as well.

Since I got a Sun Enterprise 250 yesterday I will port
Slackware 12.0 to it and try to build OpenOffice.org on
it as well but it will take weeks before I reach that
point.

Kind regards,
Sunil Janki

I suggest for new ports that use gcc to give configure-ing
with
 --without-stlport4 
a go. That way you avoid the need to build stlport and use
the system
gcc stl instead. That may get you further into the build,
though of
course a per-arch uno bridge will be required in
bridges/source/cpp_uno
that'll be the real hard bit.
