I just updated a system from 3.4-STABLE to 4.0-STABLE from Saturday
(July 1st). It worked almost perfectly following the description in
/usr/src/UPDATING.

make installworld bombed out once when calling install-info the first
time due to a missing libc.so.4. Manually copying libc.so.4 from
/usr/obj/... to /usr/lib got this working. 
I'm not sure, though, if I did something wrong in the earlier steps or
if the info install step missed to copy libc.so.4.
