freebsd stable - May 2005 - HEADS-UP: Problem with RELENG_5{_4}

Looks like there are problems with the recent patch to fix tty panics.
It seems to cause loss of keyboard input during the boot-up phase,
including the point where it asks for what shell to use if you try
booting to single-user.

We'll fix it asap, but in the meantime be very careful with RELENG_5 and
RELENG_5_4 machines.

Just FYI - this should be taken care of now.  Sorry for the delay.
