If you follow -current, then you need to update your src and ports tree,
rebuild the kernel, and then try building the ports (with the updated source).
If you follow -release, then the snapshot should work fine. These are mere

Oh, and if you follow -current http://www.openbsd.org/faq/current.html
is a good place to look.
