Yes, w3m -cookie-jar is there by default when installed from OpenBSD packages,
at least on 7.8 and later. And gotsysd and its tests only run on OpenBSD so
availability in other operating systems doesn't matter for now.

I am aware that -cookie-jar is considered an experimental option by the w3m
maintainers. I hope they won't remove it because this was the easiest way
I could find to test this functionality.
