Again, this would not be needed if you just used Lua, which is far nicer
than LuaJIT from a portability PoV.  I suggested using the same
solution/workaround as in the neovim port since that's probably how most
people will run neovim on OpenBSD.

I understand you're trying to help here, but forcing the use of an
ancient compiler is far from perfect in my book.  Fixing LuaJIT to build
and work on OpenBSD out of the box looks like a much more correct
approach, but is not trivial.
