I've got a /boot/loader.rc that looks like

set autoboot_delay=15
set console=comconsole
set prompt="boot: aurora >"

and a serial console.  This goes into another machine.  My (simple)
question, why do the first two "set" commands work and the third does
not?  If I hit space to abort the autoboot, the prompt does not set,
which would be sort of nice because once in a while I get machines a
bit confused ("now, let's see, which one is on which port...")
