[gentoo-user] Can't emerge libreoffice-3.5.6.2

[Alan Mackenzie]

Hi, Gentoo!

When I try to emerge libreoffice-3.5.6.2, I get the following failure:

#########################################################################
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
            Oh dear - something failed during the build - sorry !
      For more help with debugging build errors, please see the section in:
                http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development

      internal build errors:

    ERROR: error 65280 occurred while making
    /var/tmp/portage/app-office/libreoffice-3.5.6.2/work/libreoffice-core-3.5.6.2/sal/qa/sal

     it seems that the error is inside 'sal', please re-run build
     inside this module to isolate the error and/or test your fix:
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------

    /bin/sh
    cd
    /var/tmp/portage/app-office/libreoffice-3.5.6.2/work/libreoffice-core-3.5.6.2
    source ./Env.Host.sh
    cd sal
    rm -Rf
    /var/tmp/portage/app-office/libreoffice-3.5.6.2/work/libreoffice-core-3.5.6.2/sal/unxlngx6.pro
    # optional module 'clean'
    build

    when the problem is isolated and fixed exit and re-run 'make' from the
    top-level
    make[1]: *** [build] Error 1
    make[1]: Leaving directory
    `/var/tmp/portage/app-office/libreoffice-3.5.6.2/work/libreoffice-core-3.5.6.2'

.  There is a bug report on this, allegedly, bug #393413, but this has
been open since last December.

Has anybody else encountered this, and is there a known workaround?

TIA!
