HI! Thank you for your quick answer. Isn't the patch- the same branch as stable-branch, which is the one I'm using for my production system?
According to the FAQ section 5 (http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html ) it says: " *-Stable* is based on *-release*, and is a branch from the main development path of OpenBSD. When very important fixes are made to *-current *, they are "back ported" (merged) into the *-stable* branches; because of this, *-stable* is also known as the "*patch branch*."
