I'm running into a weird bhyve console issue...  I'm running bhyve on
HEAD at r282774...  In bhyve I'm running a HEAD at r284273:284880M...

more and less work perfectly fine when I first login from the console..
Sometimes due to terminal issues, the cursor gets "stuck" at the bottom
on the screen... If I run the rest command, more and less "break" in
that they do not output...  It appears that they are waiting on open
of the tty...

# less /etc/motd
load: 0.89  cmd: less 674 [ttydcd] 0.96r 0.00u 0.00s 0% 2528k
load: 0.89  cmd: less 674 [ttydcd] 1.14r 0.00u 0.00s 0% 2528k

# more /etc/motd
load: 0.16  cmd: more 677 [ttydcd] 1.34r 0.00u 0.00s 0% 2528k
load: 0.16  cmd: more 677 [ttydcd] 2.82r 0.00u 0.00s 0% 2528k
load: 0.16  cmd: more 677 [ttydcd] 3.20r 0.00u 0.00s 0% 2528k

Ideas?

I am running bhyve under screen, and I can reset screen's terminal
w/ a ^A-Z which also recovers from this issue, so I have a work
around, but reset shouldn't break things like this...

Thanks.
