You'll want to switch the above two lines to:
                           raidctl -c /etc/raid$dev.conf raid$dev
                           raidctl -i raid$dev

(the RAID set needs to be configured before you can re-initialize the parity)

Otherwise the above will probably be just fine.

The "latest" has been available in NetBSD-current since August 10 or so. 
I have no idea when that version will be brought into OpenBSD. 

Later...
