I imagine, though, that some kind of code review had to be done in
order to make those modifications. Are those changes (such as the -u

But, if I do this, wouldn't I be missing the chroot by default and
changes the OpenBSD team has put into nginx? Or perhaps these changes
have been made to the port as well (I haven't looked yet).
