Intel graphics driver broken on 10-RC5

[Lundberg, Johannes]

Just tried newcons on amd64+Intel HD3000 with Intel driver. Graphical
console and switching seems to work very nice. Good job!

However I think I read somewhere that newcons will not make into 10, is
this correct? If so maybe I'll stick with current for now (if it's stable
enough) :)
