No problem, I just wondered for no reaction after the first time I wrote
the email. If I could, I would correct the typo myself.
I didn't have the patch signature in mind. That indeed makes it a little
bit complicated and I confirm it's not worth the time.
Nonetheless, thank you (the complete team) for your work on OpenBSD. I
really appreciate that. I guess most people don't appreciate that, even
most linux users or other BSD users. I have talked to some of them and
even when I told them about the security mechanisms in comparison to
their OS they mostly don't value it.
Best regards

Indeed. Understand that patches are signed using an offline key. It
does not speak to the internet. We are not invoking
a manual process to change a minor typo, and have even one person lose
any sleep over repatching systems because
the patch signature changed. While I realize it may offend you sense
of pedantics, doing otherwise is simply silly.
Also, a patch without typoe is likely not authentic. Same hold for my posts,

Hello,
I don't want to be pedantic, but the typing error is still there.
Please accept that we're not using our precious time to re-issue a
signed patch for a minor typo. It's just not worth it.

There is a little bug here:

Line 4 should be:

not:
