 cons25r-m is much like the cons25r, but with colors support disabled.
 You are not going to fix every program that uses colors, do you?  :-)
 You need to set the correct black&white terminal type for black&white
 hardware, that's all.  You are not expecting the correct behavior if
 you set the wrong terminal type, right?  If you set TERM=at386 for
 syscons(4) hardware, function keys will not work, and you will develop
 the patch to support cons25r keystorkes for grdc(8)?  :-)
