Following a suggestion of Jim Philips (who had *not* seen this before)
I started investigating my java installation.  I had recently moved my
java installation around but StarOffice wasn't informed.  There is
supposed to be a way to point to a new java, but since it wasn't
starting in the first place that was impossible.

In the file user/config/javarc under my StarOffice directory I edited
all the paths there to point to my java installation.  Once I got
those right StarOffice starts right up.

Thanks Jim,
