quoting http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#Flavors :

"One should also understand that the update process is supported in only
one direction: from older to newer, and from -stable to -current. You
can not run 3.7-current (or a snapshot), then decide you are living too
dangerously, and step back to 3.7-stable. You are on your own if you
choose any path other than the supported option of reloading your system
from scratch, do not expect assistance from the OpenBSD development team."

You tried to go back...  (3.8-current -> OPENBSD_3_8_BASE which
corresponds to 3.8-release).  If you want 3.8-release, the easiest thing to
do will be to wait for the actual release, and then install from scratch.
