What did you do?
To cross compile a static binary for OpenBSD when running on Alpine linux, I ran the following
CGO_ENABLED=1 GOOS=openbsd CC=/usr/bin/x86_64-alpine-linux-musl-gcc go build --ldflags '-linkmode external -extldflags -static' .
Cgo was a necessity because of my use of go-sqlite3
What did you see happen?
# net
/usr/lib/go/src/net/cgo_resold.go:20:76: cannot use _Ctype_size_t(len(b)) (value of type _Ctype_ulong) as _Ctype_uint value in argument to (_C2func_getnameinfo)
I got the following error
What did you expect to see?
I expected it to compile without error

When you are cross-compiling from Linux to OpenBSD, you must set CC to a C cross-compiler from Linux to OpenBSD. That C cross-compiler must read the OpenBSD header files, not the Linux ones.
