After the tty-renaming in the 6.x-current branch, should /etc/ttys
be changed something like:

--- etc/ttys.orig       Sun Nov 21 21:56:12 2004
+++ etc/ttys    Sun Nov 21 21:46:41 2004

Making this change got rid of an error message that I had been
getting about ttya at system startup, and it also lets me log in
via the serial port once the system is up.  But it does not seem to
be giving me a "serial console" option, the way I have it working
on my i386 system.  What tricks am I missing?
