why not use a package from the corresponding version of openbsd that
you have instaled (ie 3.5-release)? much faster ...
also, you can capture ports build output with the tool "portslogger",
which is included in the base ports infrastructure system. use it as
such:
cd /usr/ports/editors/vim
make | /usr/ports/infrastructure/build/portslogger /tmp
that will store the build log in /tmp for each port that was built.
portslogger is an intelligent "tee(1)" that knows how to log
individual ports builds to individual build logs. then you can browse
the output using more (or less) and scroll back and forth.

i think you'll want to look at wsconsctl(8) and the associated files.
however, this isn't well documented. maybe peek at the NetBSD version
of wsconsctl(8) (from which the OpenBSD version was derived) and see
if it doesn't yield more information.
hope this helps,
