I sent this earlier but I think it didn't go through for some reason so
I am resending it. If it did go through the first time, sorry for the
noise. Original message below...
I'm sure most people could figure this out, but:

Then build and install a new libXfont:
- cd /usr/xenocara/lib/libXont
+ cd /usr/xenocara/lib/libXfont
make -f Makefile.bsd-wrapper obj
make -f Makefile.bsd-wrapper build
Looks like the 5.5 patch has the same typo.
Also wanted to pass along a BIG THANK YOU to all the OpenBSD developers
for all the great work you do!
