Workaround:
(if you install OOo in Desktop)
rm ~/Desktop/OpenOffice.org\
2.0.app/Contents/openoffice.org2.0/share/fonts/truetype/Symbol.ttf

We usually assume Symbol font come from X11, namely, we want to use:
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--0-0-100-100-p-0-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--0-0-75-75-p-0-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-p-61-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--11-80-100-100-p-61-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-p-74-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--14-100-100-100-p-85-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--14-140-75-75-p-85-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--17-120-100-100-p-95-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--18-180-75-75-p-107-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--20-140-100-100-p-107-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--24-240-75-75-p-142-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--25-180-100-100-p-142-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--34-240-100-100-p-191-adobe-fontspecific
-adobe-symbol-medium-r-normal--8-80-75-75-p-51-adobe-fontspecific
however, Symbol font from MacOSX is incompatible with it.
