I tried compiling a kernel with pccons instead of wscons and the
problem disappeared.  Back to my usual wscons kernel and the problem
was here again. I tried this step because I had the feeling
that the problem was keyboard related, but maybe I'm wrong.

I am using wscons with the Italian keyboard configuration (compiled
in); everything seems to work well except for Ctrl-Alt-Esc.

Any idea is appreciated.
