The OpenBSD devs accepted my one-liner patch[1].

OpenBSD releases every 6 months, the last release was on November 1st,
so next release will be May 1st, 2013.

Given the info about the next release, is the noise (test failed
notices from cpantesters) acceptable to people until the next release
of OpenBSD, or do you want a quick release of EU::PC with SKIP blocks
on OpenBSD for the max-version tests, and then do another release of
EU::PC in May after the next OpenBSD release has been verified on
cpantesters?

At least the problem has been diagnosed...

Thanks,

Brian
