My OpenBSD-5.1 testers for both i386 and amd64 are failing the same tests
as I reported a few minutes ago with respect to FreeBSD-6.3.

Unlike FreeBSD-6.3, this is "modern" system with OpenBSD 5.1 having been
released Feb 2012.

On both platforms I have builds w/ gcc-4.2.1 and with llvm-gcc-4.2.1.
All 4 combinations of arch/compiler SEGV on the same 3 datatype tests.

UNLIKE the FreeBSD-6.3 failures, the backtraces (though still numeric) have
only a depth of 10 (at least in the cases I sampled at random in my limited
time).

FWIW: NetBSD-5.1 looks fine on both i386 and amd64 h/w.
