I do not have ready access to an OpenBSD machine and am not aware of a
BSD person having contributed a fix.  If you need technical assistance
in developing a fix, I am glad to help.  If you contribute a fix I will
certainly be glad to update the openbsd/ configuration.  If you want
someone to fix it for you, you may have to wait awhile or hire someone.
But here are some comments on the specific problems you reported:

Generally, Unicon configuration directories are based on Icon configuration
directories, but unless someone updates them as Unicon changes, they get out
of date over time.  config/unix/openbsd/ appears to be an Icon configuration
that needs updating for Unicon.

The business about JPEG being in /usr/local is well and good, but the autoconf
rule we use for detecting JPEG already looks in /usr/local, so the problem is
more like: config/unix/openbsd/Makedefs needs to be updated to use the autoconf
macros similar to how config/unix/intel_linux and others use them.  A similar
diagnosis applies to missing libz functions: the autoconf rule is finding and
enabling libz but the Makedefs is missing the Makefile linker macro that
includes the -lz in it.

If you manage from these hints to modify config/unix/openbsd/Makedefs and
thereby fix some of your problems, please send me your Makedefs changes
and I will put them into CVS.  If there are additional problems, I am glad
to advise you as best I can.

Cheers,
Clint
