...but it indeed fails with 
<http://www.libreoffice.org/DownloadRedirect.php?target=http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/4.0.2/mac/x86/LibreOffice_4.0.2_MacOS_x86.dmg>.

What I noticed is that the python executable contained there is broken, 
having a bogus reference to /usr/local/libodep/lib/lintl.8.dylib (see 
"otool -L 
LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/LibreOfficePython.framework/Version/3.3/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/LibreOfficePython" 
output, and "LibreOffice.app/Contents/MacOS/python" crashes on a machine 
that is not infected with that /usr/local/libodep stuff).  Same for 
<http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/testing/4.0.3/mac/x86/LibreOffice_4.0.3.1_MacOS_x86.dmg>. 
 Informed Norbert about it, who does those builds.

That might be related to your problem.
