That is normal behaviour for dialin ports unless CLOCAL is set, but
CLOCAL is set for the console when init opens it.  You can change the
default in /etc/rc.local before the port is first opened except for
the console.  Hanging in open in init would normally be wrong for a
local console, so the console defaults to CLOCAL.
