Patches 1-3 seem fine to apply as is.  (I also have a working
directory with an m4 subdirectory as I was investigating using libtool
to build the sk-dummy shared library, and that needs extra macros).
@djm: any objections?

The zstd part would be a larger discussion because we would need to
either carry it as a Portable patch or have zstd added to OpenBSD
base, and I don't know if that would be accepted.  Do you have any
performance numbers for zstd in this application?

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
