Summary: configure script is broken for OpenBSD 3.3 and up

Initial Comment:
configure.in has a fix for OpenBSD, something about
broken select, anyway it limits this fix to only
version 3.[012], which of course promptly breaks in
3.3. A healthy star has been added where once there
were brackets... Of course autoconf will have to be run
again. I think this is cleaner than just submitting a
patch for the configure script.

Please read the comment above the section you are editing.
The "healthy star" is extremely unhealty, as it refers to
future systems. How can you know the patch will still be
needed in 3.4? Failure to compile if _XOPEN_SOURCE is
defined is a bug in OpenBSD, and you should consider
reporting it to them.

So I have just added 3.3 to the list of broken systems, and
committed the changes as configure.in 1.411, configure 1.400.
