There are reports of syscons hangs on SMP boxes, which may relate to

a failure of the timeout() updating the system display.  Otherwise,
the system seems fully function, syscons simply neglects to update
screen output.  Assign ownership to scottl@ since he's tracking the
symptoms and can reproduce, but any fixes appreciated.  Categorize
as "must fix" for 5.0-RC1.
