I have ported devel/uv since the 0.1.4 release (February 2024) !
See my port in OpenBSD-port WIP repository => https://github.com/jasperla/
openbsd-wip/tree/master/devel/uv

Sorry, I never submitted it here...

uv uses some patched Rust crates (see Cargo.toml) and it's need some 
"acrobatic" patches to build it ;)

I read the replies from tb@ and Suart. Unfortunately, upstream project 
uses frequently patched Rust crates: some permanently (rs-async, pubgrub, 
tl), other only for some releases (now, patchs for reqwest-middleware).

I think it' better to download patched crates from GH and uses SUBST_CMD 
to patch Cargo.toml as in my port.

PS: I have also a port for the other main Astral-sh project, ruff (Python 
linter in Rust) => ttps://github.com/jasperla/openbsd-wip/tree/master/
devel/ruff
