   As you can see, the xen console driver is a little bit unique here.
Most drivers have their own range of devices they claim and the tty
index is identical to the device file index.  For us, the tty index is
always zero regardless of the device file index.  Based on this
understanding of how it all works, I think the below patch is sufficient
to solve the problem and allow us to move xencons around to device
numbers other than ttyS0 and tty1.  Hopefully that clears up the index
confusion.  Thanks,

Thanks for investigating! I'll apply the patch.
