There was a venture by the gentleman Armanox on Nekochan to get LibreSSL working. 

I have gotten it to compile, but the library is horribly broken. I am opening this thread to document my patch, which Full disclosure is not a very good way to go about this

Summary of changes:

1. Changed all %zu to %u printf statements. 
2. Removed __attribute__ from the code. Most of them were format, deprecated, unused and noreturn types. I did not replace any with pragmas. Some msvc definitions were removed proactively. 
3. arc4random.h inside the application required some hammering. I first copied the solaris version of the header for compatibility. The next thing was to temporarily define MAP_ANON to MAP_SGI_ANYADDR. This is not the proper way to do this, and doesn't result in an anonymous mapping. It probably also "breaks" the associated functions, it was mostly done as a bypass to allow compilation. 

What would need to be done to finish: 

You need to get a set of the getentropy functions. I'd normally suggest grabbing it from the openbsd-compat part of OpenSSH or something. 

Replace my not-proper-way of doing a mapping with the fd to /dev/zero trick. The reason I didn't do this is simply because I'm not qualified to do it correctly, nor am I asking someone here to do it for me.

Before some retard comes in here and claims I "bungled" it like they claimed with sudo (which was more of a guy targeting a rookie mistake I made and trying to taunt me), this is more of a proof-of-concept than anything else, and something to keep me sharp.

This is kind of a "documentation" post like my tmux one, which I'm gonna return to sooner or later since libxg is now incorporating many of the things tmux would need for IRIX. I think it'll be easier long term with issues I'm finding in OpenSSL. I'm still working on massaging that, but it'll take me some time to wrap my head around it.

I think I fixed MAP_ANON, I've been practicing. There still is a need for getentropy.c and I'm not ready to come up with that yet.
