This is what I'm planning on putting in UPDATING:
The i386 loader(8) now defaults to the serial speed set by the
previous boot stage, if the comconsole is already in use. If
you've changed BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED in make.conf(5) and
installed a new loader, but have not rebuilt and
reinstalled the
boot blocks, then your loader will leave the console at 9600
baud. You may either set comconsole_speed in loader.conf
(5), or
reinstall new boot blocks as described in boot(8).

From other discussion, the -S option seems to be the most
straightforward method.
The boot block update is described in boot0cfg(8) not boot(8), and
must be done post-installworld, just to be 100% clear.
Thanks for adding it to UPDATING.
