Hm. Both eglibc and dietlibc return true for isatty on it.

Let me test that… quick… hah not really (CONFIG_VIRTIO_CONSOLE=m)…
ok luckily Ubuntu’s linux-image-3.15.0-5-generic is installable on
Debian stable and has CONFIG_VIRTIO_CONSOLE=y… but no reiserfs module…
gah… ok I could test it.

This works. It has got enough of a tty for mksh-static linked against
klibc to have proper command line editing even with console=hvc0.

>this is stupid, of course...

Fully agreed!
