It is probably safe to assume that the most polite answer you will be able to get from the developers is to read the kernel code and thinker with the it. If you are not able to read code itself and play with it I am afraid you will just get flamed.

I also want to reiterate the fact that unlike flakey cross compiling commonly used by NetBSDteam for example to produce kernel, userland, and packages for more exotic architectures in the OpenBSD world cross compiling is exclusively used to port the system to new architectures. All binaries on supported platforms are natively built including things like VAX, or Motorola 88 000 (I didn't make the mistake. I didn't mean to say 68 000, I meant to say 88 000). That is way they are so rock stable.
