I don't see anything in /usr/src/sys/boot that reads a "/boot.conf".  boot2
reads "/boot.config", and the loader will read "/boot/boot.conf" but that
path is deprecated.  

I have -D in /boot.config on my SOL-enabled Dell 1950, which allows for both
serial and keyboard input during the boot process.
