As I expected, KMS knows better than me what to do :-). It utterly
ignores the vga= setting. I do see the strange and wondrous
kernel option SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 provided by anaconda.
Perhaps if I knew where that was defined I could determine if
there is a better alternate available (if that really is being
used to set the font of the serial console).
