I wrote this port for two reasons:
1. I use gatling for quiet a while on OpenBSD (compiled in my /home) to
   develop and test self-written webpages/cgi-scripts.  It annoys me to
   compile and install it in my /home an every machine in stead of just
   install a package.

2. I liked the software and development ideas of Fefe besides his public
   behavior.

I don't notice that SMB and FTP support is broken. Sorry for that.  I
will test and may fix it this week.  My personal use case is HTTP for
the moment.  If some one is interested in other features as well, I am
willing to work on.

Thanks for your time and input,
Jan
