  Modified:    sys/i386/isa  syscons.c
  Log:
  Bruce pointed out a bogon:
  
  cur_console is NULL when copy_font() is first called from scinit().  This
  is apparently harmless when scinit() is called early from sccninit() -
  page 0 is apparently mapped r/w then, and 0->status contains suitable
  garbage.  However, when there is a serial console, scinit() is first
  called from scattach() when the page tables are completely initialized,
  so the NULL pointer causes a panic.
