Sorry about the slow response here...
Those /dev/ttyS* entries should not be symlinks according to the udev
rule. The udev rule will try to create actual nodes of /dev/ttyS, and
then symlinks to those in /dev/tts/.
Do you have RC_DEVICE_TARBALL set in /etc/conf.d/rc? That is the only
way I can think of that this would occur. If so, try setting it to
"no", to allow udev to completely manage /dev. RC_DEVICE_TARBALL is
rarely needed now...
/usr/sbin/pppd: Couldn't stat /dev/ttyS0: Too many
levels of symbolic links.
Yeah, /dev/ttyS0 -> /dev/tts/0 -> /dev/ttyS0 -> /dev/tts/0 -> ...
