As I wrote, I'd prefer to hear the opinions of OpenBSD maintainers, if possible. I don't feel we know enough about that OS to make such decisions on our own. Alternatively, adding a compatibility feature whereby it would be possible to build Emacs on OpenBSD without this change, would allow us to go ahead even without asking the OpenBSD folks. IOW, I don't want to drop support of old OpenBSD versions so easily. Thanks.
