Ermal, have you asked the OpenBSD guys if they'd accept any changes 
from us that would make it easier?


The SCTP guys agreed to put "SCTP_GLOBAL(name)" around their globals
with the comment that it would help them in their user-land version.
I do know that OpenBSD agreeing to do something purely for someone
else would be a rather drastic departure from their normal M.O. but
you won't know until you ask.
