After cleaning my disk up (hello, McAfee), I've now regenned my kernel
2.1.5R kernel for my 386/25, removing the chaff and leaving:

   ed0 at 0x280-0x29f irq 15 maddr 0xd8000 msize 16384 on isa
   ed0: address 00:00:c0:bd:80:d0, type SMC8216/SMC8216C (16 bit)
   sio0 at 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on isa
   sio0: type 16450
   sio1 at 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on isa
   sio1: type 16450
   sio2 not found at 0x3e8                         <=== *** PROBLEM ***
   fdc0 at 0x3f0-0x3f7 irq 6 drq 2 on isa
   fdc0: NEC 765
   fd0: 1.44MB 3.5in
   fd1: 1.2MB 5.25in
   wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa
   wdc0: unit 0 (wd0): <WDC AC280>
   wd0: 81MB (166600 sectors), 980 cyls, 10 heads, 17 S/T, 512 B/S
   wdc0: unit 1 (wd1): <WDC AC21600H>
   wd1: 1549MB (3173184 sectors), 3148 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S
   200 nSEC ok, using 250 nSEC
   aha0 at 0x330-0x333 irq 11 drq 5 on isa
   aha0 waiting for scsi devices to settle
   (aha0:6:0): "NEC CD-ROM DRIVE:84 1.0" type 5 removable SCSI 1
   cd0(aha0:6:0): CD-ROM cd present.[320495 x 2048 byte records]
   npx0 on motherboard
   npx0: 387 emulator

As noted above, there is supposed to be a 16550 based port at x03e8 with
IRQ 5, and the system is not finding it.  A boot into DOS shows
Kermit-MS finding it with no problem, and casual inspection of other
IRQ's (lest I set the jumpers wrong) makes me think I've got the right
one.  Any suggestions on how to debug what FreeBSD is finding?
