Should have mentioned what the current hurdles are.  So far the build
dies because of a few lacking items:

1) libunwind (needed for the GC, also I am told this is not a hard
requirement)
2) lldb

I haven't had time to test the builds further to see if there is more
stuff needed.

Hi ports@,

For anyone interested in .NET running on OpenBSD, there is some action
over on
GitHub (https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/issues/455) around *BSD
support. 

Upstream has been very responsive in regards to merging in support for
BSD
systems and seems to have a strong desire to get it working on as many
OSs
as possible.

I would like to get coreclr to a state that would allow for a "drop in"
(no patches 
needed) port.

If anyone else is interested in helping out, please ping me or offer
your services
on the issue listed above!

More info on CoreCLR is available in the main repo:
https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/blob/master/Documentation/intro-to-clr.md

Cheers,
Aaron
