xconsole/xterm -C, syslog, and geli

Hi,

Starting somewhere with 8-CURRENT (Ed Shouten work on the tty subsytem) xconsole
and xterm -C cannot grab the console, without hacks. For example see:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2011-February/023109.html

Even with some hacking (in my case patching mac_stub.c) syslog (non kernel)
entries are not displayed (they remain on ttyv0).

A new point (for me) is that (kernel) messages from geli/geom_eli, like:

Aug  7 10:41:04 zorglub kernel: cryptosoft0: <software crypto> on motherboard
Aug  7 10:41:16 zorglub kernel: GEOM_ELI: Device ada0p9.eli created.
Aug  7 10:41:16 zorglub kernel: GEOM_ELI: Encryption: AES-XTS 128
Aug  7 10:41:16 zorglub kernel: GEOM_ELI:  Integrity: HMAC/SHA256
Aug  7 10:41:16 zorglub kernel: GEOM_ELI:     Crypto: software

appears only as _empty_ lines on xconsole.

This is on a 9-CURRENT system amd64 SMP (2011/07/24 svn r224294).

Any hint to solve this problem ?

Thx
