(Get the code!)
I am in the same boat—i386 build failed both on PPA and my own server running it under pbuilder, and the amd64 build succeeded both on PPA and my server.
I am installing packages now to see if they fix the problem at least on the amd64 platform, and if they do then we just need to figure it out for i386. I don't know why the build would succeed for one platform and not the other... that is confusing to me.
One thing that I did notice; my build regressed bug 131526.
It also did *not* fix this bug, though it did at least crash and show the "OpenOffice.org Document Recovery" screen instead of actually freezing, at least in Writer. In Calc, it still locks hard, and has to be sent a nasty signal to get the executable to die. That's an improvement, but as the saying goes, there is no cigar yet.
Is there someone able to take a look at this that has some C++/OOo programming knowledge that might be able to figure out why the patch didn't do what it was advertised to do? Could it be an interaction between this patch from upstream and another Debian or Ubuntu patch to OOo?
Is someone able to try building the vanilla upstream and see if it works that way, maybe? My server is currently working on other work, and I don't know that I can repackage OOo from pristine sources to try on PPA. I'd try to use the OOo supplied binaries, but they're i386, not amd64.
