I rebuilt from a totally clean compile dir with the updated cons.c, and it
still doesn't work. I can login on serial console, but once logged in csh
freezes. Ctrl-T says it's in 'pause'. Attempting to ssh in results in a
disconnect after the banner like before...

Do I need pcons0 at mainbus0? the GENERIC kernel has it, but I still see
'pcons at mainbus0 not configured' booting GENERIC (1.6ZC)

Am I missing something obvious?
