Actually, OpenBSD just replaced nginx with their own httpd.

What httpd would that be?

I thought they replaced their custom Apache with (also custom) Nginx.

For some rationale, see this comment (by Reyk): http://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article&sid=20140827065755&pi...

Nginx is considerably larger than the old Apache was. Commits that took it to a new version were pretty big. I didn't see a whole lot of OpenBSD developers hardening the code. Simple and small seems to be the OpenBSD way. I like it.

They wrote their own. A completely new implementation.
