I don't really understand how that can be related.

software running in jail doing output to same terminal in which jail
started. So if you open xterm, and start jail from it, jailed s/w will
output into xterm window. If you run jail from system virtual terminal
syscons or vt(a.k.a. newcons), jailed s/w will output to that virtual
terminal, no matter which one it is (syscons or vt(4))
