ISTR a general consensus to use wscons, as least as soon as CGD
decided it was clean enough for general consumption.
As well as the Alpha port, i believe the nascent ARC port uses wscons.

wscons is supposed to be a lot easier for adapting to either
random-access raster hardware or to that really really wants to draw
characters directly (like (S)VGA textmodes and certain unspeakable,
obsolete, accelerated framebuffers.)
