It will work just fine without /var. I believe it just puts a temporary
recovery file there that you may want to delete in any case. I wouldn't
mind vi and usually need a man page reminder for ed but I would prefer
the space used for something that hasn't an alternative, like vnconfig.

I praise you OpenBSD for having such a good single user and well
managed base and overall userland. Knocks seven shades of #@!% out of 
Linux userland in this regard in any case.
