    sys/boot/i386/loader main.c 
    sys/boot/pc98/loader main.c 
  Log:
  - Add support to the loader for multiple consoles.
  - Teach the i386 and pc98 loaders to honor multiple console requests from
    their respective boot2 binaries so that the same console(s) are used in
    both boot2 and the loader.
  - Since the kernel doesn't support multiple consoles, whichever console is
    listed first is treated as the "primary" console and is passed to the
    kernel in the boot_howto flags.
