In my case, I use -P, because I usually don't have a keyboard hooked up,
but ocasionally do use it.  Additionally, I had console="comconsole" in
my /boot/loader.conf.  However, commenting that out doesn't help either.

I guess the -P option causes the console variable to be set too?  In
that case comc_probe might pick it up, and never change the speed from
what the BIOS configured.  (Note that I've never used boot0sio, and
AFAICs the 'normal' boot0 doesn't mess with the serial port speed.)

I never actively reinstalled them, except of course for running
installworld.  I've always assumed installworld would take care of that,
and I really would be amazed if it didn't. :)
