Synopsis: Can't get comconsole to work properly on Supermicro X5DPR-IG2+/X5DPR-8G2+

State-Changed-Why: 
have you tried to add the following commands in loader.conf:
hint.sio.0.port="0x2F8"
hint.sio.0.irq="3"
hint.sio.0.flags="0x0"
hint.sio.1.port="0x3F8"
hint.sio.1.irq="4"
hint.sio.1.flags="0x10"

We have similar problems on our consoles, and this gets them both
to the same port...  though now you have to make sure your second unnamed
port is turned on...  Our sio dmesg:
sio0: <16550A-compatible COM port> port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on acpi0
sio0: type 16550A
sio1: <16550A-compatible COM port> port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 flags 0x10 on acpi0
sio1: type 16550A, console
