Okay, now you are going beyond my experiences :(

First, I changed CONSPEED to 115200, but sysctl is still registering 9600:

thelab# sysctl machdep.conspeed
machdep.conspeed: 9600

manually doing 'sysctl -w machdep.conspeed=115200' appears to work though
...

But, after modifying my make.conf, what do I have to recompile?  Are we
just talking a rebuild and install of the kernel itself?  I'm going to try
that ...
