You did change /etc/ttys, right? I have a serial console (null modem
to a notebook PC) running at 115200 just fine,

  $ grep CONSOLE /etc/make.conf 
  BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED=  115200
  $ grep ttyd0 /etc/ttys
  ttyd0   "/usr/libexec/getty std.115200" vt100   on  secure

And it is a CURRENT box last made mid-week.
