After talking with Joerg about this problem, it looks like the Mach 32 server
code has a bug.

In general, Xfree86 has the complete control and knowledge of storing and
restoring the VGA Chip registers and (!) clock generator values, so pcvt is
not involved in this process.

I strongly recommend getting in contact with the Xfree86 team to fix this.
