This probably isn't a permanent solution, since gnome-bugs #463773 make it pretty clear the problem happens because openoffice and flash aren't initializing gtk properly. Archlinux patched glib and then recompiled gtk with the patched glib to revert the changes to glib that are making openoffice deadlock, and for the time being, that might be the best solution for gutsy as well. The patch is in Archlinx's cvs repository at:
