Firstly, forked software isn't necessarily undesirable so long as the people maintaining it are motivated and clueful (in this case, they are). Secondly, I don't think anyone in OpenBSD would display as much hubris as this claim on the Hiawatha home page: "Hiawatha's source code is free of security-bugs". -d
