The compilers for any number of other fine choices aren't included in OpenBSD, making the addition of software written using them more complicated.

Couldn't they use GCCGO since they already package GCC?

For gcc 4.2?

What other languages does the OpenBSD people use? Shell scripts? Maybe something else?

Jeez, it was actually an honest question.

Perl is in base and used for pkg_add and the other package tools.

There are some larger perl programs (pkg) and some smaller awk/sh/etc. floating around. Not sure about using them for a web server though.

Awk for a web server? It's been done.
