 Random observations: I tried a Type 5c keyboard on 8.99.5 on:
 
  - a U5 using machfb:
    Keyboard did not work at all once the kernel takes over, e.g. "boot -s"
    and you can't answer the shell prompt
 
  - a U60 using ffb:
    All works fine, can login on console in multiuser
 
 Both of my installations have no ttyC0{0,1} entries in /etc/ttys though,
 as they predate Matt's commit:

 add ttyC00/ttyC01 as found on eg, com(4)-based serial port systems like
 the sunblade 2500.
 
 
 On a sunblade 2500, of course, there is no kbd/ms at com:
 
 com0 at ebus0 addr 3083f8-3083ff ipl 29: ns16550a, working fifo
 com0: console
 kbd0 at com0 (console input)
 com1 at ebus0 addr 3062f8-3062ff ipl 2a: ns16550a, working fifo
 ms0 at com1
 wsmouse0 at ms0 mux 0
 
 as both mouse and keyboard are USB.
 
 A com* that has kbd? or ms? attached should of course not react at all
 to tty ioctl settings.
 
 But, as expected: adding those entries to /etc/ttys and running 
 	/etc/rc.d/ttys start
 breaks my console keyboard on the U60.
 
 
 Looking at a proper fix...
 
 Martin
