Two quirks I immediately ran into when giving pcvt330 (never used pcvt
before) a try:

monk> startx
XFree86 Version 3.1.1 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6000)
Operating System: FreeBSD 2.0
Configured drivers:
S3: accelerated server for S3 graphics adaptors (Patchlevel 2)
mmio_928, s3_generic
Fatal server error:
xf86OpenPcvt: VT_GETMODE failed
Found pcvt driver but X11 seems to be not supported.
Check your kernel's console driver configuration and /dev entries
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).

Excuse if this may be a FAQ.
Another gotcha:
The BACKSPACE key gives a 0x7f (DELETE) in vi; at least it would be nice
if the default behaviour was ^H when one is moving from syscons to pcvt.
