Hmm -- I just upgraded my -current machine to last night's sources 
(1.6ZD), and OpenOffice no longer works on that machine.  This is on a 
256M machine.  It displays a bunch of the usual

	file_image_pagein: Function not implemented

messages, and then does nothing.  But it's in some sort of loop; it's 
taking up all available CPU time, according to 'top'.
