What did you update?  I'm confused... were you running tor-0.2.8.9
(stable in security/tor) and upgraded via pkg(8) and got tor-0.2.9.4
which is security/tor-devel?

I tend to recommend security/tor-devel over security/tor, unless you
can't regularly keep the package updated.  The alpha/devel branch will
generally include the latest security fixes and counter-measures to
surveillance.

And on a side note, OpenBSD is likely removing lsof from their ports
tree (see ports@ from today), which is a dependency for the arm port,
but will have it use fstat(1) instead IIRC.
