    I'd tentatively correlate most of them with login(1) run in a

It should have been fixed by deraadt@ commit on
src/sys/kern/sys_generic.c (rev 1.107)

Please rebuild a new kernel (or wait for snapshots) for testing.

Thanks.

Yes, the problem was solved in OpenBSD 5.8-current (GENERIC.MP) #1462: 
Sun Oct 11 18:22:22 MDT 2015.
Thanks!
