Reboot with newcons (vt/vt_vga) + ATI Radeon HD 4350 on i386

Hi there,

Following my previous more of less successful experience with newcons on
-CURRENT/amd64 and some ATI/AMD card, I've decided to give it a try here
on i386 with somewhat older HD 4350, also from ATI.  Unfortunately, this
time newcons'ified GENERIC kernel + startx => reboot (core.txt attached).

Same happens (reboot) if "kldload radeonkms" is done on the console;
kldload'ing radeon.ko allows the box to survive startx(1), but it fails
with "(EE) RADEON(0): Kernel modesetting setup failed" in Xorg.0.log.

Switching back to syscons(4) allows me to start X.org (with KMS-related
modules successfully loaded and DRI enabled).  This' all sans xorg.conf.

  $ kldstat | grep radeonkms
  11    1 0xc79c2000 fd000    radeonkms.ko
  16    1 0xc7e75000 2000     radeonkmsfw_RV710_pfp.ko
  17    1 0xc7e77000 3000     radeonkmsfw_RV710_me.ko
  18    1 0xc7e7a000 3000     radeonkmsfw_R700_rlc.ko
