Hey all,

The last thing I remember reading in the fpcupdeluxe GitHub issues was
something about support for OpenBSD.

If my memory serves me well I think it already does.

But, anyway, I'll let @DonAlfredo confirm that, if he's paying
attention.

Cheers,
Gus

If a target is valid, it will be listed in systems.inc
https://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-
bin/viewvc.cgi/trunk/compiler/systems.inc?view=markup
In this file, you will NOT find system_aarch64_openbsd. So, no OpenBSD
on arm64.

I stand corrected and it's official, my memory does not serve me well
and is a piece of crap

Thanks for the save Don!!

If somebody wants to work on it then one can take inspiration from
revision 49157 three days ago which added support for aarch64-freebsd.

Thank you.  I'll keep an eye on it.
