OpenBSD 7.1 tested to work, but '--prefer-pkgsrc yes' is required
I was able to reproduce an OpenBSD user's boostrap failure because they followed the instructions in this file, which doesn't mention '--prefer-pkgsrc' at all. And yet it was required in order for me to succeed on OpenBSD/amd64 7.1

-pkgsrc bootstrap has been tested on OpenBSD 7.0 (amd64, i386) with the
+pkgsrc bootstrap has been tested on OpenBSD 7.1 (amd64, i386) with the
system-provided clang. Earlier version/platform/compiler combinations
have previously been reported to work.
+If the bootstrap fails for you, try adding `--prefer-pkgsrc yes` to your
+bootstrap command line.

Once bootstrapped, as is typical with pkgsrc, many packages build as is.
For any particular package that doesn't, fixes are often in OpenBSD
Ports waiting to be borrowed.
