“Openntpd is not vulnerable.”
Yes, this non-portability is part of the openbsd playbook and strategy. There is a "non-portable" version of libressl, too.

There's a non-portable version of OpenSSH too. This strategy produces high-quality software while making developers' lives easier. (All in my highly-biased opinion)

It would be no more difficult for OpenBSD to produce one version, but that wouldn't fit with the strategy.

I don't see why the OpenBSD developers would want to avoid their strategy of producing secure code.
