As far as I understand it, it must be both:

   The library used for GNU/kFreeBSD uses definitions of the baud rates
   B9600, B19200, and so on, whose values are the very decimal values
   the are supposed to represent, i.e., B9600 -> 9600.

   Using them in a termios c_cflag really destroys all sense of the
   termios setting.

On the other hand,

   the system call "ioctl(fd, TIOCSCTTY, (void *) 0)" is necessary
   to get the controlling terminal, otherwise the process is not
   allowed to access "/dev/tty". Thus I judge the kernel to be
   involved.

Exactly the same reasoning holds for standard FreeBSD and OpenBSD.
