The last time I checked, which was about 6 months ago, is that no version of 3.x after 3.0 supports programs that use shared memory with an SMP kernel, and there are no plans to retrofit the code from -current. If you want to run -current, you'll just have to read the mailing list, and pick a relatively stable period. Don't forget to read the UPDATING text, and build and install the kernel first.
