AFAIK, this is also written in non-portable ways so every display
driver should have (*scrollback). That's not good.

What I had in mind was:

- If the underlying driver has scrollback support, utilize it for
  performance (if (scrollback)).
- It not, use the default MI wscons scrollback function (!scrollback).

I remember I was surprised by strong objections to this small
feature some time ago, so I'm worried about the Second Scrollback
World Flamewar to come.
