6.0 is a release version and will only receive patches for the base OS.

-current/snapshot is what I'm running and it's the development version
of openbsd. In a few months, current will be marked and released as
6.1. Basically I'm following the development branch of OpenBSD:

I wrote to the maintainer of postgresql on openbsd and asked if he
could take a look at this email and see if he can reproduce the
problem.

Meanwhile, I came across this.
It looks like 8 days ago select.h was modified, but I have no idea if
this is causing the postgresql failure.
http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/sys/select.h

I will checkout buildfarm and see what it takes to run it!
