It is only for non-Latin languages.

It seems the original maintainer isn't doing anything with it anymore
and Rene, the Debian OOo guy, has been NMUing it lately and is using it
for the Debian OOo build as well. He will probably eventually take over
it entirely if the original maintainer doesn't show back up.

There are some bug reports on SF that users couldn't get it to build
with gcc 4.3 but appear to be against an older version and the bug
reports just haven't been closed out.

Upstream appears to think that the library is mostly done at this point
and is headed towards just maintenance releases going forward:

Here are some other URLs that give more information about graphite and
its use with OOo:
