Hmm, I just went surfing this and a couple of mine don't work. One in particular is asapm, which doesn't actually surprise me since it's a laptop applet. However, I'm surprised at the failure mode: ===> Building for asapm-2.3 cc -O -pipe -I/usr/X11R6/include -c apm_react.c cc -O -pipe -I/usr/X11R6/include -c apm_rc.c cc -O -pipe -I/usr/X11R6/include -c apm_read.c apm_read.c:24: machine/apm_bios.h: No such file or directory I surfed the CVS tree a bit, and of course...there's no apm_bios.h file in the Alpha tree, so maybe I'm not so surprised. Is that because there's no apm stuff for the Alpha? I don't see any hope for fixing this. (A cursory browse of the OpenBSD Alpha source tree confirmed they don't have this file either.) I don't know if there's been some sort of BROKEN_ALPHA flag invented yet, but this port is a strong candidate for that if it becomes the case.
