<li>OpenBSD/hp300 and OpenBSD/mvme68k have switched to GCC 3 and <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=elf&sektion=5">elf(5)</a>

<li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=gcc&sektion=1">gcc(1)</a> stack smashing protector added for Alpha and MIPS (enabled by default)

<li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=softraid&sektion=4">softraid(4)</a> RAID1 and crypto volumes are now bootable on i386 and amd64 (full disk encryption)

<li>Large performance and reliability improvements in

especially in parallel mode. make no longer does any busy waiting, it handles

concurrent targets correctly, and displays more accurate error messages.

emacs-like editor now supports <tt>diff-buffer-with-file</tt>, <tt>make-directory</tt> and <tt>revert-buffer</tt>.

Column numbers have been made configureable and locale is respected for ctype purposes, like displaying ISO Latin 1 characters.

dpb can now build selected large ports using parallel make, and it

has a notion of affinity, so that ports failing on a cluster will be

preferentiably restarted on the same machine.

</ul>

<p>

<li>Many pre-built packages for each architecture:
