This is really a questions@freebsd.org type question; however...

long story short, from RELNOTES.TXT:

syslogd(8) now supports a "LOG_CONSOLE" facility (disabled by
default), which can be used to log /dev/console output.

added to -stable on Jan. 9th (and will be available in the
upcoming 4.3-RELEASE).

see a recent etc/syslog.conf for implementation details
