+ On the 64-bit x86 and 64-bit ARM architectures on OpenBSD (the
+ <code>openbsd/amd64</code> and <code>openbsd/arm64</code> ports), system
+ calls are now made through <code>libc</code>, instead of directly using
+ the <code>SYSCALL</code>/<code>SVC</code> instruction. This ensures
+ forward-compatibility with future versions of OpenBSD. In particular,
+ OpenBSD 6.9 onwards will require system calls to be made through
+ <code>libc</code> for non-static Go binaries.
