One thing to note about this (and other similar reports that XFree86 leaves the text console garbled on exit on NetBSD and OpenBSD) is that the Linux console driver does its own VGA registers save/restore when switching VTs, while the wscons driver used by NetBSD and OpenBSD doesn't save/restore anything. I don't know if the proper fix is to duplicate the code from the Linux console driver in the X server for the systems that need it, or to add this ""feature" to the wscons driver.
