For example, if you look at the 'current' web page (http://www.openbsd.org/faq/current.html) you'll see two syntax changes in the last six months. The best you can do in a situation like this is use an exec/system call from your chosen language (sh, perl, python, ...), and remember to read the new man page and test your code on each new release. -- J.C.
