There are some links missing in 
/Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/Frameworks/LibreOfficePython.framework/

I could get some modules installed by first executing:
ln -s 
/Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/Frameworks/LibreOfficePython.framework/Versions/3.5/{include,lib}
 /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/Frameworks/LibreOfficePython.framework/

and then for example

But 'regex' fails in the compilation because stdio.h cannot be found. Maybe specifying an 
appropriate CFLAGS or CPPFLAGS environment variable might solve that.
