It may well be there, but on my 9.3-STABLE with the following kernel
config:

include         GENERIC
ident           VT
nodevice        sc
nodevice        vga
device          vt
device          vt_vga

I cannot see it no matter what I do.  I did not set kern.vty=vt in
/boot/loader.conf though, is it also required with this kernel config?
