There might be something else wrong with the build as well, but you're at least likely to bump into this:
Webkit needs memory mappings which are both writable and executable. OpenBSD denies these by default. Your wkhtmltopdf binary will need to be linked using the -z wxneeded flag, and it will need to be placed on a filesystem that has been mounted with the wxallowed flag. It maybe simpler to adapt the perl code to the newer wkhtmltopdf, rather than to figure out how to build their wkhtmltopdf the right way.
