I wasn't going to respond ... but my post said nothing against Linux.
Absolutely nothing.  I did defend the right of an OpenBSD developer to
extend software (in most respects they rewrote it) to work the way they
want it to on their platform of choice.  The license of the software
allows this, I might add.  They achieved that goal.  Now, I hear
complaining from you that they didn't do the work for you on your platform
of choice.  Better yet, you make it an obligation of theirs to do so.
Although, it is nice of them to do so, they certainly are not obligated.
So, as you see, I made no BSD -vs- Linux comments and I did not even
advocate either OS (although I did defend the popularity of FreeBSD).
Just to be clear here.
