I've tested on my minimal install of OpenBSD 5.6. It seems the test
hangs at line 24 of comptest (in function comptestinit()):

  zpty -r zsh log1 "*<PROMPT>*" || {

Matthews, could you try with the patch at the end of this post?


OpenBSD does not have /dev/ptmx (it has /dev/ptm instead), but has
posix_openpt() function (OpenBSD 5.3 or later).

In zsh-5.0.8, USE_DEV_PTMX is not defined on OpenBSD (because it does
not have /dev/ptmx), and zpty.c uses the old BSD-style code (line 246
and below in zpty.c).

In zsh-5.0.8-test-2 (or 5.1.0rc), configure.ac has changed and
USE_DEV_PTMX is defined because posix_openpt() exists, so zpty.c uses
posix_opennt() (HAVE_POSIX_OPENPT is also defined).

It is OK if posix_openpt() really works, but the fact that X02zlevi hangs
suggests that it is not working as we expect due to some unknown
reasons. Simply undefining USE_DEV_PTMX seems to work on my OpenBSD.
