Compiling on OpenBSD requires adding one line into to argus_main.c and ratop.c:
#include <sched.h>

Compiling argus-clients fails with threads disabled (by removing
.threads). Multiple areas reference tcount as a member of struct
ArgusInput.  Wrapping these blocks in #if defined(ARGUS_THREADS) ...
#endif is necessary to compile without threads.

With or without threads, I get core dumps under OpenBSD:

$ pwd
/usr/local/src/argus/argus-clients-3.0.0.rc.51
$  time bin/ra -nn -r argus.2007.09.05.15.00.01.gz |wc -l
