then you can do an upgrade install.

you don't say which versions were involved, but if you installed 4.0
and then did a 'make build' of -current source, that's one problem -
unlike FreeBSD the procedure here is to do a binary upgrade to the
nearest -current snapshot before "make build".

it's an arm arch:- N.B. http://www.openbsd.org/faq/current.html#20061227
(besides the snapshot install of the system binaries, there will be more
to do if you changed your shell to something from packages).
