We currently use the path /ust/lib/ooo-2.0 by default.
The path is defined in ooo-build/bin/setup.in as
OOINSTBASE=@prefix@/lib/@OOOINSTALLDIRNAME@

You can change @prefix@ by the configure switch --prefix=your_prefix
You can change @OOOINSTALLDIRNAME@ by the configure swith 
--with-installed-ooo-dirname=your_dir_name

Hmm, the right fix would be to change ooo-build/bin/setup.in to define:
OOINSTBASE=@libdir@/@OOOINSTALLDIRNAME@

Then you could define your preferred path by:
./configure --libdir=/opt --with-installed-ooo-dirname=openoffice

Could you try it and tell us if it works, please?
