Subject:   booting with a serial console disables the screen saver

I needed to configure my -current box to use a serial console so that I
could get to ddb while the system was running the X11 server on the main
console, so I hooked up the serial cable and rebooted with the -h option
in boot.config.  After I did this, I noticed that the green_saver kld
would no longer blank the screen after a period of inactivity if the
main console is in text mode and the X11 server isn't running.

Any hints or brilliant insights would be appreciated.
