Though according to:

Therefore it may be not so important to have specifically Microsoft VM since if 
it is fully compatible with community's Mono VM which is already present in 
OpenBSD ports?

Another question, are we going to see DotNet Core in OpenBSD?

Something like:

For example if we look at mono package on Gentoo:
https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/dev-lang/mono

We will see there are missing ports for alpha, hppa, ia64 and sparc, actually I 
might be interested only in sparc among them.

On the other hand are there any similar limitations for the:
https://openports.se/lang/mono

if it is built on OpenBSD
