Sorry. You may think you followed the instructions correctly, but you didn't. Obviously though there are new X snapshots available, so this problem is not in the tree.
http://openbsd.org/faq/current.html#20120831a Read the second sentence again: Everyone is encouraged to update via snapshots (dated after 2012/08/31); That is the solution. > This morning (a couple of hours ago from sending this email) I updated via > cvsync from anoncvs3.usa.openbsd.org, and after updating my local source, > building kernel and userland, xenocara failed to build.
