Update to -current (or 5.2 when it will be available), and install
orca from packages.

It's just a matter of:

# export PKG_PATH=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/`arch
-s`/

or

# export PKG_PATH=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/`uname
-r`/packages/`arch -s`/

and then:

# pkg_add -v orca

Cheers,
David
