Problem solved...

Suddenly it hit me: I shouldn't have reinstalled the bootblocks on /dev/rdw0a, but 
on /dev/rdw0d, as this is wat the disklabel looks like:

testbak# disklabel /dev/rwd0
# /dev/rwd0d:

Now the kernel-messages are being output in 115200 baud.

Thank you all for being so patient with me!
