Yes, devices are present. And if i run mgetty from command line it work. 
I use cu to connect, and is working. ppp on this port also works. 
Mgetty started from /etc/ttys - does not..
Also mgetty  work normal on 6.0-BETA5. 

I have tried to check mgetty on my laptop with ltmdm and also got this error.
