My suggestion would be:
- Install 4.0 according to information found in Section II of The NetBSD Guide:
http://netbsd.org/docs/guide/en/
- Download the source to -current, & build & install the new kernel.
Unlike Linux which is a kernel with a userland slapped on top, each of the *BSD's are more tightly integrated -- meaning that the kernel & userland may not have as much latitude in being out of sync. I haven't tried what you are attempting, but you are free to experiment. It might work, but I can't promise that you will be successful.
