If I recall correctly, even the xen kernel output appears to "broken" in
this 50-line mode, and it comes up in 25-line mode on other machines. I
looked about for options related to this, and didn't see any. And xen
3.2.0 comes up in 25-line mode. So this really looks like a Xen bug, not
proper behaviour, to me.
