And why is this a problem?

I don't think your patch is right. deplibs_check_method is not as
much a property of the OS as it is of the architecture the OS runs
on. I find it unlikely that, for every port of openbsd that exists
today or that might exist in the future, it is legal to include
non-PIC in shared libraries (which is what pass_all means). Please
have a look at the way we do it for GNU/Linux systems, and do
something similar for OpenBSD. Thanks,
