>Description:
	Please see the -current mailing list thread starting at
	http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=528976+0+/usr/local/www/db/text/2003/freebsd-current/20031123.freebsd-current
	for details.

	Basically, I can't set up a serial console on sio1.  Output from
	user-level applications get redirected to the serial console,
	but output from the kernel (bold-faced stuff) does not get
	redirected.  It will disappear from the vidconsole, but not
	appear on the comconsole.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Please see the thread mentioned above.  I'd also encourage others
	to try to set up a serial console on COM2/sio1 as it might be
	a problem specific to my box.
