I beg to disagree with point b above: the libuv project continually receives (and accepts) patches fixing bugs specifically for OpenBSD. Atomic ops (compare-and-exchange) might be a harder dependency to shed for libuv. Does the fallback onto compiler intrinsics (__sync_val_compare_and_swap, or on GCC 4.7+, __atomic_compare_exchange_n) not work here? Jesse
