[PATCH 1/2] config.mak.uname: OpenBSD uses BSD semantics with fread for directories

[Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belón]

this "fixes" test 23 (proper error on directory "files") from t1308

MirBSD likely also affected but this was only tested with OpenBSD and
therefore this specific change only affects that platform

the optional 'configure' sets this automatically (tested with 6.1 to 6.4)
but considering this is a legacy feature it is likely that it affected
all old versions and is probably what most users had been using as a
workaround

FWIW this patch doesn't have any other siblings and subject should had
been just [PATCH]; apologize for the confusion and the spam (including
that other duplicated email, and most likely this one)
