I resolved most of the F8-update openoffice srpm build dependencies and still the 'prelink package'.
I applied your two patches to the build but I'm failing on 'regcomp.bin' both in %build and %install where it's eating all the memory and at the end being killed for out of memory.
Did you have the same behavior? Can you please provide some lines what 'regcomp' does in the build and how to start debugging this?

My system has 512MB DDR and 4GB swap. So there should be plenty of memory to build that.

Thanks,
