Remove an OpenBSD note in the README which is no longer necessary.
OpenBSD's behavior has not changed, but the default SBCL allocation size was changed some time ago to work with the default OpenBSD resource limits.

for NetBSD:

NetBSD 2.0 and above are required because of the lack of needed
3535
signal APIs in NetBSD 1.6 and earlier.

for OpenBSD:
38-
OpenBSD 3.0 has stricter ulimit values, and/or enforces them more
39-
strictly, than its predecessors. Therefore SBCL's initial mmap()
40-
won't work unless you increase the limit on the data segment from
41-
the OpenBSD defaults, e.g. with
42-
ulimit -S -d 1000000
43-
before you run SBCL. Otherwise SBCL fails with a message like
44-
"ensure_space: failed to validate xxxxxxx bytes at yyyyy". (SBCL
45-
is just allocating this huge address space, not actually using this
46-
huge memory at this point. OpenBSD <3.0 had no problem with this,
47-
but OpenBSD 3.0 is less hospitable.)
