As I've stated above, "make update" is the wrong target.
In fact, here is what I did most of the time after updating the ports tree :
Code:
# cd /usr/ports 
# cvs up -rOPENBSD_4_9 -Pd 
# make index 
# pkg_list=$(mktemp) 
# /usr/ports/infrastructure/build/out-of-date |tee $pkg_list 
# SUBDIRLIST=$pkg_list make clean package 
# export PKG_PATH=/usr/ports/packages/`uname -m`/all 
# pkg_add -ui -F update -F updatedepends
And out-of-date was still complaining what ever I tried next.

I know it was possible to update third party applications in stable with packages in the past. But as it is not supported anymore, I guess even if some updates make their way through ports, stable is not supposed to have proper fixes for these and this is why there is no documentation about it.

I might consider running current then.

Thank you all for you answers.
