I've noticed this as well lately. It's obviously a change on FB's side, not on OpenBSD's side (since you have gone back to old versions to verify the problem still happens on versions I know it didn't). Curiously, I think I have noticed it impacting my (completely stock) android phone, too, though that may just mean it is over due for a reboot. I'm not losing any sleep over it, however. I seem to have low expectations for people coding not-stupidly. Nick.
