This was a problem even with pcvt... not sure why you just started
seeing it :) It's even in the *BSD FAQ... You can tell the X server
which vt to use; check your /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers file. I use
this line:

:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X vt05

The vt05 tells it to start on virtual terminal 5. However, I don't use
xdm, and haven't tried it with wscons... I'd expect it to work though :)
