It appears that my g++ version and the libraries are matching (3.3.2 and so.32.0), but I've also asked at the OpenBSD sparc list for a bit

"3.3.2" and "32" do *not* seem like a match to me...

Well, here's what the OpenBSD-Sparc folks have to say:

Peter Valchev - It's not a bug in maildrop, but a bug with OpenBSD C++ exception handling, which was present before and including 3.6 but fixed since, so it works fine in -current. Unfortunately the fix is too complicated and bug to ever backport to -stable.

Miod Vallat - Moreover, there is a flaw in the c++ compiler on sparc64, even in -current, which causes c++ exceptions not to work correctly in RARE cases.

This will be fixed as part of the compiler update which will happen during this release cycle. In the meantime, a workaround is to compile with -fno-peephole.

So, thanks for all the help, I've gotten a workaround with procmail, and I'll be back to maildrop when all is well next May with OpenBSD 3.7.

Thanks, Seth
