If you're just looking to run bleeding edge on some port, installing a snapshot is usually sufficient. Really, you don't need /usr/{src,ports,xenocara} unless you're *compiling* -CURRENT, as has already been pointed out.

To get the latest xxxterm pkg, all you have to do is upgrade to the latest snapshot, then point your PKG_PATH to pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/`machine`/ on your favorite mirror, and pkg_add -ui. The only way to run more bleeding edge than that is to use uncommitted port updates that are published on ports@ (which requires /usr/ports to be installed, but not src or xenocara).
