Basic testing done, no problem so far.

Would it make sense to add a note to DESCR, something like...

  "As the original developers consider thttpd as done, the development
   effort has been taken over, under a different name."

Also the way thttpd works doesn't easily fit the default OpenBSD
/var/www layout, so the user needs to setup some symlinks like
cgi-bin -> ../cgi-bin or ~foo -> ../users/foo.  Perhaps is it worth
a README?  The redirect and ssi CGI could also be linked statically so
that they can be used easily with a chroot.

Finally, here's a proposal for a rc.d script:

#! /bin/sh
#
# $OpenBSD$

daemon="${TRUEPREFIX}/sbin/thttpd"
daemon_flags="-d /var/www -r -dd /htdocs -c /cgi-bin/\\*"

. /etc/rc.d/rc.subr

rc_cmd "$1"
