I do not know of anyone who makes .isos of patch releases available.  It
would be a nice contribution to the community if someone had the time and
bandwidth to do it.

Martin:

You'll need to install 5.4 from the iso, then use cvsup to update your 
sources with the updates. Then read the handbook and /usr/src/UPDATING 
for the instructions on how to recompile your world and kernel. Your 
other option is to wait for 5.5 which should be out any day now.
