just looked into it, now i know the answer.

telnetd is spitting out the banner when you log in on over the net,
getty is doing it when you log in on console.

getty's gettytab-getting routines accept \: as ": to be outputted."
telnetd uses libc's getcap routines, which want \c or \C for the
same thing.  i'm not sure if getty will accept \[cC], but eventually
it will.

so: the solution:
	use \c rather than \:



cgd
