OpenBSD version 6.0 was released almost 2 years ago (sep. 2016),
and is not officially supported, based on the fact the OpenBSD people
release a new version every 6 months and support only the last two major
releases.
https://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#Flavors
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenBSD_version_history

The most up-to-date version is 6.3, released three months ago:

The above message indicates that none of sed's test failed.

Below are gnulib's test - these are not directly related to sed,
but are indicative of problems in the underlying gnulib library:

When I run these on OpenBSD 6.2 this test does not fail.
(there is one already known failure of test-localename.

Are you able to test on newer version of OpenBSD ?
If so - do you still see 'test-sigprocmask' fail ?

For now I'm closing this bug report and "not a bug", but discussion can
continue by replying to this thread (and we can re-open it if need be,
though it might be more relevant to send to [email-masked]).
