Not disk imaging software but this triggered a connection in my brain and thought I'd mention it - the R-Studio recovery software used in the *extremely* useful "raid recovery by sight and sound" video can handle OpenBSD filesystems. (software doesn't itself run on OpenBSD but I think this information is worth disseminating in case someone finds it useful ;)
