Just to clarify, you were able to install 4.0.1, then build -current
natively on your 4000/705? You say you excluded the regression tests,
why is that? Speed? A workaround for a problem?
Thanks, I am trying to get a handle on the current status and it's
very confusing.

I installed 4.0.1, then compiled the whole system including x11 but
excluding the regression tests.
The resulting system boots fine and recompiles itself, with one exception:
awk dumps core occasionally. I had to replace it with the 4.0 binary.
The system used is a 4000/705
I did not try to use the freshly compiled boot loader (/boot), i have to
admit. But the rest of the system is now rock-solid, with 4.99.73 running
