Those messages mean that the kernel thinks it is detecting a serial
port (com port), but that the irq isn't what it's expecting. You can
usually safely ignore those. The important bit for you is that it
detects your modem at sio4, so you'll want use sio4 (or cuaa4) in
whatever document you are using to get dial-up working.
How are trying to get dial-up working? ppp?
You'll probably want to have a look at the handbook (if you aren't
already).
