Yes, it looks like an issue in pkg_check on OpenBSD 5.4 :) Go install the pkglocatedb package manually, from the location of the error, it's almost certainly that. (when pkg_check finds some files that don't belong to any package, it should go recheck thru pkglocatedb where those are supposed to live---this is most often due to fsck issues where files are there but not registered and pkg_check will use pkglocatedb to locate the packages it should repair)
