     192Porting Pidgin 3 to OpenBSD was a valuable experience. OpenBSD builds with strong compiler hardening and loads executables with strong ASLR and memory sanitization, so memory corruption bugs that usually fly on other platforms are often exposed. I found at least four of these, three of which I've already fixed upstream.
