You will not get Evergreen to work on OpenBSD without a ton of changes  
to the code and build system.

I suggest you install the latest Debian GNU/Linux or Ubuntu 12.04 or  
14.04 and try that.

AFAIK, no one has even attempted OpenBSD, and the work to get  
Evergreen to even install on FreeBSD was aborted well over two years  
ago.
