Which version of OpenBSD did they build against? Did you test them?
Did they just assume that since it is go, they could cross-compile?

OpenBSD doesn't maintain ABI compatibility from one release to the
next. We make sure the packages built from the ports tree stay
working. Does the upstream project? Since they don't mention how
the packages are built, I'm betting not.

Only if all the users of it want to build it from source themselves.
