This is what I'm planning on putting in UPDATING:
The i386 loader(8) now defaults to the serial speed set by the
previous boot stage, if the comconsole is already in use. If
you've changed BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED in make.conf(5) and
installed a new loader, but have not rebuilt and reinstalled the
boot blocks, then your loader will leave the console at 9600
baud. You may either set comconsole_speed in loader.conf(5), or
reinstall new boot blocks as described in boot(8).
