Try this:
device sio2 at isa? port 0x1a0 tty flags 0x501
device sio3 at isa? port 0x1a8 tty flags 0x501
device sio4 at isa? port 0x1b0 tty flags 0x501
device sio5 at isa? port 0x1b8 tty irq 9 flags 0x501 vector siointr
The last port is the master.

Put the quotes back - they don't hurt, although I don't think you
_really_ need them.

Yep.
sio0 at 0x2a0-0x2a7 flags 0x301 on isa
sio0: type 16450 (multiport)
sio1 at 0x2a8-0x2af flags 0x301 on isa
sio1: type 16450 (multiport)
sio2 at 0x2b0-0x2b7 flags 0x301 on isa
sio2: type 16450 (multiport)
sio3 at 0x2b8-0x2bf irq 4 flags 0x301 on isa
sio3: type 16450 (multiport master)
