I've just rebuilt a fresh RELENG_6 and installed the GENERIC
bootblocks, which default to 9600 baud.  I get a serial loader console
at 115200 baud under each of the following conditions:

/boot.config contains -h -S115200
/boot/loader.conf empty

/boot.config contains -h
/boot/loader.conf contains comconsole_speed="115200"

/boot.config empty
/boot/loader.conf contains console="comconsole" and comconsole_speed="115200"

What's in your /boot.config?  Are your bootblocks from the 6.1 beta as
well, or from a previous install?
