Why not just configure a special kernel?  There's a line

ms0 at zs1 channel 1

and if you instead make that

zstty2 at zs1 channel 1

(and comment out the other zstty2 line), then you'll get a kernel that
allows you to talk to the mouse as a normal serial line.

Or, yeah, you can just use kernel printf() (the output will go to the
console).
