What's the ports people's opinion on this?  I guess compat_linux(8)

redhat_base is now obsolete?

I'm pretty sure this is a doc problem.  Fedora is the new Red Hat (at
least for the free part).

This patch (from /usr/src) fixes it:

Hi,

http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq9.html#Interact says I should
use fedora_base for Linux emulation but compat_linux(8)
says I should use redhat_base. What is your advice?
