Err, I dont't think so (I have not checked) but the sources are made to 
be used with MS VC++ (the windows version) and also for Linux, Solaris 
and Mac OS X.

They have weird prerequisits for the compilation, they use:
* 4NT Version 2.5 or higher.
* JDK 1.3.1.
* Perl 5 for Win32.
* Cygnus Toolkit. The latest Cygnus Toolkit is available from
   http://www.cygwin.com. However: OpenOffice.org was successfully
   built using the (old) b20 version of cygwin, but we encountered
   problems with the newest version run under the 4NT shell.
   Cygwin-b20 resides under various mirror sites, for instance at ..
* GNU Bison 1.28: cygwin-b20 only contains Bison 1.25.

See: http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/source/build_windows.html

I thought I should try a build using only cygwin and native cygwin 
programms (and MS VC++).
