console oddities

Hi. Some very minor issues in -CURRENT:

On boot, the cursor on the vga screen goes to home position.
So if you have console=comconsole in loader.conf, the login prompt on the vga 
terminal is sort-of lost amidst the initial boot output.

Also during shutdown the tty settings appear to be incorrect. I am getting the 
good old staircase effect (line feeds without carriage returns.) This applies to 
both serial and vga consoles.

Cheers
Michiel
