Ah, very wacky since I've only seen this before on a T2P4 with both FBSD
and BSDi _and_ neither had any com ports in the kernel _nor_ was it enabled
in BIOS.  There was a problem when the happened too.  My recollection is
dim and the fix forgotten.  Taking the insanity plea, since it drove me
bonkers trying to find and fix the problem.


FWIW, they appear within 5-10 minutes after boot (ie reboot and walk away,
come back hours later ???).  Damn, just realized that moused is running for
my recent interest in running X, but only moused was started (via rc.conf),
nothing else except the basic deamons.  Not 100% positive, but think they
were happening before moused was enabled.  The logs were cropped, but one
entry falls before moused was added.

Is this worth pursing?  There were no problems (AFAIK) with the strays, but
if this is a bug of some sort...

Simple enough to boot the aout kernel w/o mouse and see.
