I've noticed the following in source upgrading [1] from 
stable/15-n282003-d2fb6b8f80cc to stable/15-n283597-3ae682909950

1. had to set in /etc/ttys from the following:
ttyu0   "/usr/libexec/getty 3wire"      vt100   on secure

to:

ttyu0   "/usr/libexec/getty 3wire"      vt100   off secure

otherwise the console gets spammed with 

"May 19 11:53:09 desktop kernel: [2732] May 19 11:53:09 desktop getty[90061]: open /dev/ttyu0: No such file or directory"

2. then noticed my keybd had somehow changed to us-something even in X [2]

Had to change keymap="uk.kbd" to keymap="uk.iso.kbd" in /etc/rc.conf

unaware if this is documented anywhere.

[1] make -j16 cleanworld && make -j16 cleandir && make -j16 clean \
