I set the passphrase to 'a' now, and when I set 'kern.geom.eli.visible_passphrase=1' I see that the 'a' is typed as expected. When I type more characters though, not all of them are printed, only about half of them. I did read about problems with SMP, and have set kern.geom.eli.threads=1 in loader.conf, but still no go.
