April 2026 monthly summary for two-core repositories: jasperla/openbsd-wip and vlang/v. Focused on stabilizing builds, tightening security, and improving CI reliability, with concrete feature deliveries and essential bug fixes that reduce maintenance risk and accelerate shipping. Key features delivered include a coordinated dependency hygiene effort (Ty crate updates from 0.0.27 through 0.0.32 across the port chain to preserve compatibility), plus a Makefile pre-configuration bug fix that ensures reliable version tracking during builds. In addition, a broad tooling and dependency refresh for Build/CI modernized core tooling (gdu, tailspin, betterleaks, glow, yara-x, cargo-nextest, gitoxide) and removed a deprecated static analysis tool to improve reliability and security. On the V language side, codebase hygiene cleanup removed temporary coverage files for issue 24842, CI stability improvements (libunwind-18-dev and longer FreeBSD gcc timeout), and security hardening (mbedtls upgraded to 3.6.6) along with an enhanced testing framework (browser print regression output).
