If you're interested in possible fixes to these, please make a good
bug report to the maintainer and/or ports@, including an accurate description
of what you do and what happens and, if possible, gdb backtraces from any
core dumps. It is not uncommon for software to forget about byte-order,
strict alignment and other things which have different effects on the
various platforms OpenBSD supports.
