Sorry I didn't make that clear. The patch was the one-liner (datafd only). I ran it again with the Dustin's 2-liner with the same results.

BTW, I ran these latest tests (all 8 runs) on the 0904 snapshot. It builds cleanly on OpenBSD now.

Most of them :)

Am I guessing correctly that the "Patch" here was one of the earlier
patches that touched all three file descriptors? And that when you
tried the one-line patch (that touched only "datafd"), your dump
succeeded, but "sed" complained about stdout again?
