Hi,

In -CURRENT, the serial port device names have changed, i.e.
 /dev/cuaa0 is not /dev/cuad0

The kernel debug info related to serial port debugging will
need to be updated:
/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug/chapter.sgml

What is the best way to do this?  (i.e. inform users
that older systems had cuaa0 and newer systems have cuad0, 
or just change all references from cuaa0 to cuad0???)
