Looks like you forgot to set the 'flags 080' on the sio device of the
machine being debugged. This is a logical OR with what was set before. So,
for me, I changed the line in my kernel config
device sio0 at isa? port IO_COM1 flags 0x10 irq 4
to
device sio0 at isa? port IO_COM1 flags 0x90 irq 4
and attach my serial cable to the first serial port of the machine being
debugged.
Also, you want to use
target remote /dev/cuaa0 (the dialout serial port)
assuming you've attached your serial cable to the first serial port of the
debugging host.
Finally, you won't have any sioX devices in /dev, so stop looking for them.
