    Actually, no.

    OpenBSD stole "P", released it as "Q", then when asked politely threw a hissy-fit, removed "Q" altogether, and called the Linux devs "inhuman" for asking.

    Then the OpenBSD maintainer went on a witchhunt to find something in Linux that had been "stolen", but all he could find was a mailing list post of some rejected code, which he promptly sized as "stolen" and started foaming at the mouth again.
