I had a similar old slow computer so I: 1) Build and install the patches on a faster computer. 2) NFS mount /usr/src and /usr/obj from the faster computer so that I can access them from the slower. 3) sudo make install for each of the patched components. Of course, OpenBSD versions are exactly the same on both computers.
