How is it possible to use the "light" colors defined in the
"src/sys/dev/wscons/wsdisplayvar.h" file with the wsconsctl? Although
in the "console drivers" sections in the guide, it says we can only
use the first 8 colors, it seems.


You'll have to patch wsconsctl to use those "light" colours. However,
apart from WSCOL_LIGHT_GREY, the light colours are actually the _bold_
variants of the corresponding colours, and so aggravate your case.


Scratch that patch. There's already msg.*.attrs=hilit to do that stuff:

# wsconsctl -d -w msg.default.attrs=color,hilit msg.default.fg=black
msg.default.attrs -> color,hilit
msg.default.fg -> black		# grey, actually
