I'm currently using this version of openoffice: 1:2.4.0-3ubuntu6
and still see the same problem with a-umlaut in Arial, as displayed
in the insert-special characters dialog (attached).
(kcharselect, e.g., is able to correctly display all Arial characters).

For a bug of this severity (IMHO it never was "medium", it's a blocker for German (European?) users), I would feel more comfortable if you could
give some hints on why you believe it had been fixed.

Has any one compared this issue to the following?
