My bad. One of my local machines here is running different console code, from one of the other BSDs, which needs initialization. The resource_int_value() stuff used by the serial console during cninit() doesn't depend on tunables only set during SI_SUB_TUNABLES. I'm wrong, and you and Peter are correct, for the current FreeBSD. I would still recommend, however, that people *not* do console I/O before SI_SUB_CONSOLE has run, if they want their code to be portable.
