Yesterday, I got the urge to update my XF86 install on my
workstation.  I had been running the original XF86 installed by the
4.1-RELEASE CD-ROM.  The system istelf has been kept up with 4-STABLE
over time.

The X server runs just fine; I didn't change any configurations for
it.  However, when I either exit X, or CTRL-ALT-F1 to go to the
primary text console, the text mode switches, but then the monitor
reports invalid scan frequency, and the text is smeared horizontally
across the screen, flickering and scrolling upwards.

I'm using the XF86_Mach64 server, as I was before.

Has something changed?  Could it be a compiler bug?  My make.conf has
CPU type set to p3.
