That document is seriously out of date, see the warning (red, even) at the main page at that site, http://www.openbsdsupport.org/index.html For an up to date guide, http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq11.html is a lot better place to start. Then install the kde packages and pay attention to the package messages. At first glance it looks like you're mostly there with the rc.local changes. The xinitrc and Xsession edits are not really needed if all you want is a kde desktop. In addition to kdm startup, modern kde packages tend to want fam and possibly dbus-daemon, again watch the package messages. (and I'll save the rant about eejits dumping their barely edited this-worked-for-me-except-the-stuff-I-forgot-to-mention "HOWTO"s on the web and leave them there to mislead way past their rm by date for sometime later) -- Peter N.
