As David pointed out, wscons should theoretically make this work by
turning virtual terminals on.

If FreeBSD labels vty as "Pseudo Terminal", they're mislabeling it.
It's properly a virtual terminal (multiple terminals on the same
console). A pseudo terminal is something that emulates a terminal
connection over something other than the console or the serial port.
