You need to add

	options SC_PIXEL_MODE

to your kernel configuration file.

There is a note in http://www.freebsd.org/~yokota/sc_update-June.txt,
which is referenced by /usr/src/UPDATING, about this option.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
options SC_PIXEL_MODE
Syscons has supported the raster console mode (VESA 800x600) by
default.  This is now an optional feature, and must be explicitly
enabled by SC_PIXEL_MODE.  If you have been using this mode, add the
above option.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Please also refer to the man page syscons(4).
