None. Because the names "OpenSSL" & "OpenBSD" both start with the moniker "Open", many equate the two as coming from the same set of developers. They do not.

However, as comet-berkeley has linked, the OpenBSD developers have taken on the task of correcting all of the ills of OpenSSL found in OpenBSD. Rapid & frequent changes are now being checked into OpenBSD's CVS repository chopping out all kinds of cruft.
