Where do I get a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) for Mac OS X 10.5 'Leopard'?

There is currently [Opened: Thu Oct 21 13:52:00 +0000 2010] a Bug reported for those using OpenOffice 3.2.1 with OSXhttp://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=115180

Apple confidently tells you that 'Every version of Mac OS X comes with Java out of the box.' Specifically, Leopard comes with J2SE 5.0 preinstalled, based on JDK 1.5.0_13_b05.

However, Java is structured differently on Leopard than it was on Mac OS X 10.4 'Tiger'. Thus OpenOffice 2.3.x is not able to recognise the JRE on Leopard. As of 2008-Mar-14, the Mac OS X 10.4/5 download page says,

Please note that the Java features of OpenOffice.org are only available from OpenOffice.org 2.4 (more specifically milestone m237) and later. This means that the Wizards, Base and some other things are unavailable in 2.3.1 or earlier. All other functionality of OpenOffice.org remains on Leopard.
