That's' tacky... Hopefully there will be another solution for this in the
future.  This behavior breaks several of our programs (voice mail, beeper,
etc).  Although, having the appropriate behavior of getty is nice, we come
in thru a terminal server which works properly, hence it is no benefit to
us.
