+### Please describe the problem.
+I have managed to get most things working under OpenBSD 5.4 now.
+
+One of the last hurdles is that if I enable XMPP the build fails on "Loading package gnuidn-0.2.1..."
+See the error below.
+
+I suspect this is an error in git-annex because network-protocol-xmpp AND gnuidn compiles (and links) fine.
+
+I will gladly do anything I can to get this working, but I'm at a loss what to do right now. It's the last major piece of the puzzle before I get it properly functioning under OpenBSD.
+
+### What steps will reproduce the problem?
+Building with XMPP support under OpenBSD 5.4
+
+### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
+5.20140129 under OpenBSD 5.4
+
+### Please provide any additional information below.

+Loading package gnuidn-0.2.1 ... 
+
+GHCi runtime linker: fatal error: I found a duplicate definition for symbol
+   c_isascii
+whilst processing object file
+   /usr/local/lib/libidn.a
+This could be caused by:
+   * Loading two different object files which export the same symbol
+   * Specifying the same object file twice on the GHCi command line
+   * An incorrect `package.conf' entry, causing some object to be
+     loaded twice.
+GHCi cannot safely continue in this situation.  Exiting now.  Sorry.
