Just a minor clarification: don't know if you're in contact with
upstream, but it would be useful not only for OpenBSD but I guess
virtually to every package archive, to provide a versioned tarball:
for e.g. something like KJV-2.10.0.zip.  So, when it will be updated
the old link could continue to work and the new version be provided as
(again, for example) KJV-2.11.5.zip.

if you get stuck you can try posting a tarball and asking for help.
Not a guarantee, but maybe someone could take a look and help :-)

Quite sure we have glib2 in tree.
