Read http://www.openbsd.org/cvsup.html and start again. Don't forget to clean up your /usr. In short: You got yourself a copy of the cvs tree and you need to check out the source from that. Using /usr as base/prefix was wrong. And on the perl issue... By updating to the snapshot you got yourself the new perl installed. - Robert
