You will have to use FreeBSD or use OpenBSD 2.7.

2.8 will not work because there is a bug in the threading library 
included with OpenBSD 2.8. Zope triggers it when you call the management 
screen.

However, in the Zope code for the management screens there are 
"thread-safe" calls used which are not, as far as I know, used elsewhere 
in Zope. Maybe there is a bug in that code?

But for now I believe the bug to be in OpenBSD 2.8. I have not found 
anything to suggest that it has been fixed or looked at. None of the 
patches released so far for 2.8 mention it.

I went through this in early December.

Luke
