Compiles for me now too on OpenBSD, without the need of environment variables 
and patches.
Still need to test running it.

I need to compile gworkspace the following way:

LDFLAGS=-L/usr/X11R6//lib ./configure --enable-gwmetadata
ADDITIONAL_LIB_DIRS="-L../../DBKit/obj/ 
-L../../../FSNode/FSNode.framework/Versions/Current/ -L../../../DBKit/obj/"  
gmake LDFLAGS="-L/usr/X11R6/lib -lfreetype"


The LDFLAGS thingies are needed for the PDFKit Inspector.
The ADDITIONAL_LIB_DIRS are needed, because some modules have the wrong include 
paths.
When another version of GWorkspace is installed then it will pick up and link 
against those libs, 
but when there is no GWorkspace installed yet, then compilation will fail.
I can send a patch later Today for the ADDITIONAL_LIB_DIRS.


cheers,
Sebastian
