>Description:
In usr.sbin/kbdmap/kbdmap.pl, the routine &font_current
which reads /etc/rc.conf to determine the current font
does not handle correctly the quotation marks around fontname,
which causes later regexp in &vidcontrol to fail, as a
consequence vidcontrol(1) is not invoked.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a non-standard font not matching your LANG vars
in /etc/rc.conf . Run vidfont(1),
but do not choose any font, rather exit by Canceling. Your
font will be changed to the one matching your $LANG, but then
it'll fail to revert to your default font on exit.
