With the binwriter I meant not using external as/ld. I hope it will make the
VM runs go a bit faster (they are well over an hour now)

I did a run last night and it stumbled on missing "bsd" unit, which holds
the kqueue implementation that lnet needs. I quickchecked headers, and it
seems to be mostly there in openbsd (give or take two constants) so I
enabled it.

However the next run failed on an error in a script, so I don't know where
it gets stuck now. I'll be home after noon, working at home the rest of the
day, and then do some more runs.
