Just a message to the lists, to make sure it doesn't end up assigned to
me. This issue is not in any way related to the libteken commit I did a
week ago, but I also noticed this issue back in June last year.

At first I thought it was related to the new MPSAFE TTY layer, but
I can remember seeing this on stock sources as well. I think we should
see whether it is also present on other architectures supported by
syscons. I think it might be a syscons VGA renderer issue.
