Dan, many thanks

I wish src.conf(5) man page were more descriptive on this option.
At present it only contains:

     WITHOUT_LEGACY_CONSOLE
             Set to not build programs that support a legacy PC console; e.g.
             kbdcontrol(8) and vidcontrol(8).

so I though it doesn't affect moused.

Maybe I should post to @doc about this..

thank you again
anton
