Ah...I've totally forgotten about FPC. I wrote some initial support for
OpenBSD a few years back but never really sat down to finish it.

A few nits:
- there's a tab below DISTFILES that's bogus.
- why not change COMMENT to something like this:
  open source compiler for Pascal and Object Pascal
- please add comments to the patches as to what/why you're patching.
- you're hardcoding /usr/local in at least fpcsrc/compiler/systems/t_bsd.pas
- some regress tests have lines like this:
  Warning: Compiler target "openbsd" is not in list 
"linux,solaris,freebsd,win32"
- some tests require nasm, which may be worthwhile to add to REGRESS_DEPENDS.
