(In reply to Sergey from comment #5)
It turns out that vt(4) was using teken's keystrings for the function keys, and
while the function key strings were in fact getting set, it wasn't using them. 
I'm not sure if it was originally the intent for teken to override the
keystrings. Manual page of kbdcontrol(1) doesn't seem to suggest so. 

Anyways, I've made this patch: D14936 which makes vt(4) to use the function key
strings if they have been set. The behavior is same as before if the keys have
not been set.
