Hmm, I've noticed this at the *console* too if I'm using a non-standard
sized font in slot 0. I know they say you're not supposed to put a smaller
font than 9x12 into slot 0, but if you don't you can't get a cursor
smaller than 9x12. The small fonts seem to work, and vi sort of works,
but ^D mungs the screen terribly. I'd also be most interested if anybody
has a fix for this.
