The following comes from Dignork who saw an offer I posted soliciting instructions for building Bitcoin 0.7.x1 on OpenBSD in a way that works on the right Blockchain.2 Behold the astounding simplicity:
sudo pkg_add git sudo pkg_add unzip sudo pkg_add boost sudo pkg_add gmake sudo pkg_add gcc-4.6.4p7 sudo pkg_add g++-4.6.4p4 curl -O http://download.oracle.com/berkeley-db/db-4.8.30.NC.zip unzip db-4.8.30.NC.zip cd db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix ../dist/configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-replication --enable-cxx --enable-shared=yes sudo make install git clone -b 0.7.2 https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git #apply patch from https://gist.github.com/anonymous/c30fb8d6f09517097d2e cd bitcoin/src #we use alternate gcc export CXX=eg++ gmake -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=- USE_IPV6=0 BOOST_LIB_SUFFIX=-mt
These instructions are also on Github.
