What's wrong with building a release? It's well documented, supported
and works great.

If you don't want to build your own release and you trust me, you can
use the filesets from
ftp://ftp.su.se/pub/mirrors/openbsd_stable/4.2-stable/i386/
These are built from the stable tree after the SSL-patch was made
available.
