For the servers I'm talking about, blowing the whole thing away and installing any packages from the new disc is just fine and keeps away the clutter.

I look at it this way, if all I'm really doing is adding some flags or configuration files, I would rather just blow it away and do the reinstall. Last couple of times I did that with my firewall, it was a 20 minute install.

Completely agree with you - and it's what I've done in almost every case. The Library thing is an OpenBSD issue that people who are upgrading need to take note of though.
