OpenBSD supports running FreeBSD binaries. Most binaries should work,
except programs that use FreeBSD-specific features. These include
i386-specific calls, such as syscons utilities, and audio devices.

The FreeBSD compatibility feature is active for kernels compiled
with the

A lot of programs are dynamically linked. This means, that you will
also need the FreeBSD shared libraries that the program depends on, and
the runtime linker. Also, you will need to create a "shadow root"
