Good call. I was updating everything in lock-step so I never noticed.

It's not fast. I build with MAKE_JOBS=N to help a bit.

Right, that was a mistake on my part. I later realized the list can't be
shorter. I was just taken aback with the sheer mass of dependencies.

The idea to link the test code into the main binary is quite
unorthodox. I can imagine some arguments for it, but I'll have to
overcome a lot of prior beliefs to accept this as a best practice.
$ touch /home/greg/.config/git-annex/program
$ git-annex test

(Failures above could be due to a bug in git-annex, or an incompatibility
with utilities, such as git, installed on this system.)
The failing tests are due to unconfigured rsync stuff.

Please do. You are the first person I know who still uses darcs on
openbsd :)
Thanks
