Since that time various people tried various things -- for reference see
ppc@
but personally most closest thing of running OpenBSD on POWER I've seen
so far was OpenBSD in amd64/qemu which was kind of PITA performance
wise. OpenBSD/macppc is not working in qemu at all and although
netbsd/macppc goes way far, it's still not able to be installed
properly. On the other hand this all was with quite old (2.12) qemu
supported in ubuntu 18.04 since so far I've not found a time/energy to
deal with linux kernel compile + new qemu and testing various
combinations of openbsd/netbsd install configurations...

Does anyone have an update/status report on the progress?
