Did you try it? I copied the command from your email and verified it just now. It most certainly does not do what you suggest.
Works fine for me.

Weird. What do you get from:
% type -a OOo
For me, it's:
% type -a OOo OOo is /usr/X11R6/bin/OOo
jbarnes@shuttle:~> type -a OOo OOo is /usr/X11R6/bin/OOo
Also:
% file $(type -ap OOo) /usr/X11R6/bin/OOo: symbolic link to `OOo-wrapper'
jbarnes@shuttle:~> file $(type -ap OOo) /usr/X11R6/bin/OOo: symbolic link to `OOo-wrapper'

Perhaps this has something to do with a hack I got from this list and applied a few months back when one of the KDE 3.3 supplementary updates caused a problem that prevented launching OpenOffice.org. I don't remember the details (and am too lazy to look them up, now), but it involved a simple edit to an OOo script.
