learning to port something is quite different from mixing current and
stable.
The former is fine for this list, the latter is not fine for any OpenBSD
list.
Some of us charge money if you really want to do things not supportable
by OpenBSD (aka not enough desire/developer resources to even consider
maintaining current ports on stable), most of us just say ``go away''.

Wrong. Some are willing to try against the odds.
OpenBSD's (and Linuxes) installation base would
be considerable smaller, if reading manuals
before installations were compulsionary.
Besides, what's wrong with hacking?
Wrong, regarding this particular OS. The man pages are the definitive
documentation, and errors in them are considered serious bugs.
In this particular case, you are attempting to do something that is
unsupported. Do NOT expect support from this list.
Porting something means adding something not supported yet.
What better newsgroup is there? One tries, fails and learns.
