The FAQ entry you reference was corrected recently (too recently,
admittedly -- 8/31) to reflect the new reality in OpenBSD 4.5
and later, but even before that, the FAQ indicated this was
removed for 4.5:

   NOTE: For -current and upcoming 4.5, crunch and crunchgen are
   part of the base system, skip the separate build step below.

SO..you are either looking at an obsolete hard copy or a stalled
mirror.  If the later, please let me know what one so I can either
lay a beating on the operator or de-list it.
