SVN rev 185891 on 2008-12-10 21:48:05Z by ed
Remove added newlines from logged messages written to /dev/console.
The /dev/console device node logs all strings that are written to it.
When the string does not contain a trailing newline, it appends one. I
can imagine this was useful a long time ago, but with our current
rc-scripts, it generates a whole bunch of messages that look like:
| Configuring syscons:
| blanktime
| .
By not appending the newlines, the output of `dmesg -a' is now (almost?)
exactly the same as what the user will see on the console device
(syscons, uart).
