Hmm, they work fine on my system, using Libreoffice 3.3.2 (with
-templates). I get the "Fruit Depot" letterhead etc. :)

Looking at the config, I think it may only install the sun template
pack for supported languages that are also in your LINGUAS. The sun
packs are in en_US de it fr es hu.

In my case, it is set to:

LINGUAS="en en_US"

And when emerging LibreOffice with +templates I see

checking for Sun Professional Template Pack integration (only
supported languages displayed)... en-US

I'll have to wait another 30+ minutes for it to finish before I can
see if it actually did anything. But if you're using a different
LINGUAS (or none at all?) then perhaps it's a clue meanwhile.
