It hasn't been ported to pi 1, and is not likely to be. Pi 1 uses BCM2835, which is an ARMv6 architecture design, this has significant weaknesses compared to ARMv7 that OpenBSD is targetting. Pi 2 uses BCM2836 which is an ARMv7 architecture cpu. OpenBSD is targetting ARMv7 but not the BCM2836 System-on-Chip (SoC). The current 32-bit arm port of OpenBSD targets ARMv7 systems using the following SoCs : Allwinner A10/A20, Freescale i.MX6, TI OMAP3/4. Pi 3 uses BCM2837 (ARMv8). The 64-bit arm port targets ARMv8 including this SoC amongst others. (currently: Allwinner A64, AMD Opteron A1100, Broadcom BCM2837, Rockchip RK3399).
