Summary:

(1) The image file at
<http://download.patchew.org/openbsd-6.1-amd64.img.xz> has been recently
uploaded ("Last-Modified: Wed, 27 Feb 2019 11:48:18 GMT") by someone
unknown to me, and its sha256sum doesn't match the sha256sum in the
"tests/vm/openbsd" test script.

This is why my earlier attempts at the OpenBSD build test have failed.
And in fact I don't understand how it could work for anyone else -- the
compiler that the "tests/vm/openbsd" script specifies is neither
installed, nor available with "pkg_add", in this image.


(2) Against the "old" image
<http://download.patchew.org/openbsd-6.1-amd64.img.xz.old>, which indeed
has the expected
sha256sum=8c6cedc483e602cfee5e04f0406c64eb99138495e8ca580bc0293bcf0640c1bf,
the build test *does* succeed.

(

In order to make use of the old image, it has to be downloaded manually,
then moved/renamed to:

  $HOME/.cache/qemu-vm/download/bc4733f6c6e76931702528a515a1bf70eb8baecd

because the last filename component must be the sha1sum of the URL
itself, for the caching mechanism to recognize the compressed image:

> $ echo -n 'http://download.patchew.org/openbsd-6.1-amd64.img.xz' \
>   | sha1sum
> bc4733f6c6e76931702528a515a1bf70eb8baecd  -

)

I'm attaching the log of the successful OpenBSD build test, which I
captured with "screen" (see the "BUNZIP2" lines in it, in particular).

Thanks,
Laszlo
