I personally have this running on a desktop PC running OpenBSD
7.4-current since a few releases back. While it's been convenient, it
has bitten me in the butt when something broke, since we are talking
about -current. I wouldn't recommend this on anything you need in a
functional state, but then you wouldn't be running -current unless you
are aware of the risks. ;-)
