Serial console options

I finally have enough FreeBSD hardware piled up have things
crossconnected with serial consoles.

One question, though: one machine has a serial port capable BIOS.  If
I use this, is there a way to do kgdb debugging over that connection?

I think the real question is: if I use the serial port for the BIOS,
will it be available as a port in FreeBSD?
