Was that SPARC-specific?  Did it work even when using rcons?

Thing is, as far as I can recall there's only a single console device,
so split input and output would have to be implemented below that
layer, which means MD code.  Am I misremembering, or is that how it was
done and I just never noticed it when I was grubbing around in there?
