Ahhh, I was using -no-pie and wondering why it didn't work :-).
Great, so compiling with -nopie produces a working executable, excellent,

But I thought that amd64 was already using static pie by default in 5.7?
The release notes at http://www.openbsd.org/57.html suggest this:
All architectures have been transitioned to static PIE
