That's from a kernel POV.  From a user's POV w/o UCONSOLE xconsole doesn't
work but "xterm -C" does.  This is nonsensical to me.

a) it is utterly unclear to me that that is what *should* happen.
b) frankly, I couldn't find more from you then what happens know and vague
allusions that you are "investigating this".
