The peercred-patch was included to build openvpn with glibc-2.8 (for further 
information please have a look at 
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=245181). The pkcs11-patch was included 
to ensure some backward compatibility for the easy-RSA-stuff.

i'm not a developer *g* and i don't know if we should consider these patches 
for the testing tree ;)

I've added "--disable-depr-random-resolv" to configure ;) Ebuild fixed and 
tested.

Thats a private repository and not yet in official Gentoo-portage. Maybe I'll 
find some time in march to talk to Cedrik, the official maintainer of openvpn-
packages for Gentoo.
