Well, I tried this a month or two ago, and found that most of the interfaces
to the esp have been changed in OpenBSD. It's mostly a syntactic thing; Open-
BSD does the same things, but differently. So you can't just drop it in. 
I fooled with it for a while and got it to compile and work, but it died
seriously on the Sun4m (SS20), whereas pk's current esp driver works fine.
Perhaps on the ELC it will work better.
