That is correct.

How do you gents keep your 4.2 stable OpenBSD server ( read packages,
not system ) bug free?
I run build infrastructures for the two last releases, apply patches as
needed and feed the packages from the build machines to a package
distribution server. All systems are then "attached" to this server
using the PKG_PATH environment variable.
That works very well.
If I remember correctly, I'm not supposed to use 4.2 stable system
with current ports.
No, that usually does not work well.
Thank you for your suggestions
