I've seen this in the far past - back in the 2.x or early 3.x days.
I don't remember the exact flag I used but it was one of
the options you will find in LINT under the area
labeled # options of atkbd.
The BIOS on one of the machine I had then did not detect a keyboard
and thus set the keyboard to the serial port, but I haven't used
this option for about 5 years.
