~s OpenBSD hints file update
This is a bug report for perl from millert@courtesan.com,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.34 running under perl v5.8.0.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please enter your report here]
The following diff against the current version of hints/openbsd.sh
does the following:
1) OpenBSD still doesn't have a "real" vfork. The version that
was slated for 2.7 never happened.
2) OpenBSD 3.3 will have real setre?[ug]id() functions.
3) Add workarounds for deficiencies in the (nascent) hppa port.
4) Adding -lpthread to libswanted is bogus, and OpenBSD 3.3 will
no longer use libc_r. The correct way to handle threads is to
simply add -pthread to the compile and link lines. It may be
safest to simply set "usenm=false" but I haven't done that here
since Configure seems to do the right thing even when threading
is enabled.
