You can do an additional test with gcc, but as Robert pointed out
already, the default clang should work just fine and is probably
preferred.

You could optionally add something like
    pkg_add -uv
    syspatch
before(?) installing the packages if you want to make sure that
everything is up to date.

Depending on whether the idea is for the binaries to end up with TL
(as opposed to just checking that there are no build issues),
you would probably want to have multiple (most likely two) instances
of OpenBSD builds, for example openbsd6.4 and openbsd6.3 (soon
replaced by openbsd6.5).

(I didn't check how adding a version influences the rest of the script.)

Of course it makes sense to first start with one version and get that
one working. There should be no difference in building the other
version (other than more confusing yaml syntax).
