 I've experienced exactly same problem on 2.2.8-RELEASE system - all
 symptoms
 same as described in this PR. In addition after a while other network
 daemons
 (named, gated) started to hang as well (syslog() call tries to log on
 /dev/console
 when syslogd is not running - it should NOT block there).
 
 Apparently syslogd is not able to open /dev/console -- when i've
 commented /dev/console
 entry out of /etc/syslog.conf syslogd started ok.
 
 In my case the source of the problem was getty, which was configured to
 run
 on port cuaa0 instead of ttyd0; after it was reconfigured to run on
 "ttyd0"
 all problems disappeared.
