The previously suggested kernel config option PRINTF_BUFR_SIZE=128 appears to "work around" the issue on my machine, an HP zd8215us. I'm running 7.0-RC3 (no, really, that's what it sez), built Wed Feb 20. I could RELIABLY reproduce it with single-user mode, mergemaster -p, make installworld, mergemaster, halt, before I added the kernel option. I'm not using xdm. I do use kdm, but it's the FIRST thing I turn off before troubleshooting.
