How do you have device sio configured in your kernel ?  Are you trying to 
specify the ports for the puc attached serial ports ?  All you need is

device          sio
device          puc

Also, enable crash dumps and build a debug kernel.  Add

makeoptions    DEBUG=-g
to your kernel config

and at bootup time add

dumpdev="/dev/da0s1b"           # Device name to crashdump to (or NO).
dumpdir="/var/crash"            # Directory where crash dumps are to be stored

Assuming your swap is on da0s1b
