Well, I need this too, if you are trying to compile something like L4 (to use OpenBSD as a development environment for embedded systems that don't use the OpenBSD kernel) you need a separate binutils, for example, to build Kenge (An L4:pistachio development environment) you need the gnu nm and ld utilities which is different from the one supplied by OpenBSD. My taret hardware is a soekris that is not running OpenBSD, I'd like to use OpenBSD and not Linux as my development platform, that's all.
