 Log Message:
 Pull up following revision(s) (requested by tsutsui in ticket #1368):
        sys/arch/atari/dev/ser.c: revision 1.49
        sys/arch/atari/conf/GENERIC.in: revision 1.86
 Make options SERCONSOLE (force serial console if DCD is detected)
 patchable by binpatch(8) like:
 ---
 serconsole(0x23bac4): 0x00000001 (1), at offset 0x23bb44 in /netbsd
 new value: 0x00000000 (0)
 ---
 May work around PR port-atari/39849
 (netbsd-ATARITT kernel fails with serial port connected)
 and some old TT030 with early revision boards.
 Disable options SERCONSOLE (force serial console if DCD is detected)
 because now it's patchable by binpatch(8).
 Enabling serial console by DCD signal could be problematic
 on some earlier TT030 (with revision A board), and it's also
 annoying for users who connect an active device on the serial port
 as mentioned in PR port-atari/39849.
 XXX: Eventually serial console should be enabled by MD bootloader flags,
 XXX: but I have no idea how to build bootloader binaries for TOS.
