>Description:
	The proper termcap entry for the wscons on the i386 (and some
	other ports) is wsvt25 (or wsvt25m). However, it appears that
	all our /etc/ttys files say vt220 instead. This means
	capabilities such as color and such are not available on the
	console.
>How-To-Repeat:
	Examine /etc/ttys
>Fix:
	It isn't clear if we should or shouldn't change this, but we
	probably should. The fix would be to (trivially) change the
	default ttys files.
