I haven't used the physical serial console for a while,
but I can get access to a serial console via a management
processor (MP) on amd64 10.1-STABLE #4 r277210 (sun fire x4100)
and on ia64 10.1-STABLE #8 r276327.

The speeds look a bit strange.
I have nothing about the console
in /boot/loader.conf and in /etc/ttys:

ttyu0   "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"   vt100   onifconsole secure
ttyu1   "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"   vt100   onifconsole secure

on both amd64 and ia64.
