You are asking this question for three times. The answer is no. Errata and syspatch are for security issues that can be triggered remotely or by a local non-root user. If we would fix every panic in stable, we could not concentrate on developing OpenBSD current. Doing errata involves at least five people who could spend their time on creating new features instead. We provide security fixes, may handle stability issues, but will not bug fix old releases. Bugs like this one show lack of release testing. So instead of asking to repair old stuff, please help us to make new things better. By testing snapshots and diffs on production or production-like systems, the community can improve OpenBSD releases. bluhm
