I have 4.0 -stable and want to update to 4.0 -stable (i.e patch the system). 
This is standard procedure...... I do it as it was a couple of months ago..
you know like.....
cd /usr
rm -rf src
export CVSROOT="anoncvs@anoncvs1.ca.openbsd.org:/cvs"
cvs -z5 -q get -rOPENBSD_4_0 -P src
cd /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf
config GENERIC
cd ../compile/GENERIC
make clean && make depend && make
mv /bsd /bsd.old
cp bsd /
reboot
cd /usr/src
rm -r /usr/obj/*
make obj && make build
reboot

bla bla bla bla

This means from stable to the latest stable. The same applies to the 4.1 
upgrade which is 4.1 stable to 4.1 stable. I do it the CVS way as some stable 
patches are not on the errata page. And I script this update, so it cost me 
zero time. Well.... not zero time when I see problems. But as said this is 
the first time I see problems....


I have done this hundreds of times without any trouble. And I am of course 
*NOT* trying to upgrade between major releases. 

This must be a problem with the cvs code checked out. But I do not know what 
the problem is. Therfore I posted to the list.
