We don't have very many users of any of the open source AVR development 
tools on the OpenBSD platform. So any work on that platform is always 
appreciated.

There is a regular maintainer of the toolchain for the *FreeBSD* 
platform, Joerg Wunsch. He's also an admin on a lot of the AVR tool 
projects. (Don't be surprised if he answers to this thread in the next day.)

If you take a look at par.c:
<http://savannah.nongnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/avrdude/avrdude/par.c?rev=1.14&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup>
at the top of the file, right after the set of include files, is a 
conditional compilation section that includes a file depending on which 
platform is being used to build for. Here's that section:

#if defined(__FreeBSD__)
# include "freebsd_ppi.h"
#elif defined(__linux__)
# include "linux_ppdev.h"
#elif defined(__sun__) && defined(__svr4__) /* Solaris */
# include "solaris_ecpp.h"
#endif

So, FreeBSD, Linux, and Solaris is covered. It looks like you'll have to 
write the equivalent header file for OpenBSD.

Let us know how you get on.
