That doesn't sound like OpenBSD at all.
Did that happen to you on a Debian system?

  schwarze@isnote $ pkg_info | grep avahi
  avahi-0.7p0         framework for Multicast DNS Service Discovery
  schwarze@isnote $ ps axu | grep avahi
  schwarze 45428  0.0  0.0   312  1372 pd  S+p    1:37PM    0:00.00 grep avahi
  schwarze@isnote $ grep avahi /etc/rc.conf.local
  schwarze@isnote $ grep avahi /usr/ports/print/cups/pkg/cupsd.rc 
  schwarze@isnote $ 

So i have avahi installed, i did not change its configuration,
and it is not running.  Even the cups start script does not appear
to automatically enable it.

I think what you are asking for is already the case.

If you think there is a bug, you need to be more specific.

Yours,
