Just tried this out, and it works really well, though I did find a
	couple of small points:
	    a) Switching virtual consoles resets the scroll buffer
	    b) Scrolling up and down while the rc scripts are running
	       results in lost characters at the start of some lines
	       eg: " ounting all filesystems..."
	    c) http://www.pao.lombardiacom.it/scroll/ has 'sys/' missing
	       from /usr/src/sys/dev/ic/pcdisplayvar.h

	Good work so far :)
