Is it the only difference? Here is the original, I already changed the
softlink:

# rpm -q openoffice.org
openoffice.org-1.1.0-6
# cd /usr/lib/openoffice/program
# ls -l soffice*.bin
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       446012 nov  3 23:33 soffice1.bin
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        70904 nov  3 23:33 soffice2.bin
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       555192 nov  3 23:33 soffice3.bin
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           12 nov 12 13:50 soffice.bin -> soffice1.bin

The binary size difference is not what you describe,
but much larger, oowriter starts up with a huge speed difference!
