   Exception happened shortly (not immediately) after the following command was issued “bitcoind -conf=/etc/bitcoin.conf getinfo”.

   System: OpenBSD 5.4-release, with no modifications. bitcoind-0.8.5 was compiled and packaged using https://github.com/jasperla/openbsd-wip/tree/master/net/bitcoin

   Package with binary can be provided on request.

   Full error message is below:

   Looks like a duplicate of #3485, except that it happened on another OS
