So that I can perpetrate a Monstrous Evil I need to use #LD_PRELOAD. I found @b0rk's article (https://jvns.ca/blog/2014/11/27/ld-preload-is-super-fun-and-easy/) and via that Ian Taylor's 20 part guide to #linkers (https://web.archive.org/web/20260515141747/https://lwn.net/Articles/276782/). There's a comment from a reader there that provides a way of turning the guide into an #ebook, but that includes the blog readers' comments. Someone else patched the script to exclude them: https://web.archive.org/web/20240909002123/https://www.mediafire.com/file/z7ul3t8lpyws52n/ian-taylor-linker.recipe/file

Hurrah for other people!

I updated the port of #mold for #OpenBSD on openbsd-wip: https://github.com/jasperla/openbsd-wip/tree/master/devel/mold

Should just work(TM). For the adventurous, you should be able to install the port and link with an added -fuse-ld=mold flag and all should be good.
