i hope the API changes are small enough in scope so that you don't have
to re-write everything?  we try to do API changes only after a careful
discussion of the alternatives; please give us feedback in case you
think that you spend too much time and effort on this kind of thing :)

searching for PRODUCTNAME finds this:

http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/Setup.xcu#22

org.openoffice.Setup.Product.ooName

value should be "LibreOffice" at runtime (or "LibreOfficeDev" for a
non-release build).
