Not needed. Most appliances/routers/whatever with serial consoles use 9600,8,N,1. Those which don't can be configured once and then it is a standard OBSD install with a GENERIC kernel and you have the option to choose a serial console @ 9600 [default] for the post-install console during a standard install. Why oh why would anybody compile a custom console to achieve the same operation?
