Thanks everyone,

After some friendly advice off-list I was able to solve the problem. It
was very simple really.
However, since it is dubious practice at best, and runs contrary to the
OpenBSD project goals, it feels wrong to share the "solution" here.
Anyone interested may contact me off-list.

Best Regards,

Erling
