I think you've meant `sysctl kern.vt.enable_bell=0' in the commit log.

Hm, I'm wondering why having another sysctl is required when there's already
a way to shut the bell up with VDF_QUIET_BELL flag?

Also, there's certain naming inconsistency between syscons(4) and vt(4).
On my stable/8 laptop, I see this:

    $ sysctl -d hw.syscons.bell
    hw.syscons.bell: enable bell

On my -CURRENT desktop, this:

    $ sysctl -d kern.vt.enable_bell
    kern.vt.enable_bell: Enable bell
