I'm pretty sure it's because gdm is fighting with getty over vt2. xdm does
that. wdm does that. Login.app doesn't (because it's spawned by init).
Before the slink release, there was plenty of discussion regarding this.
Most of the people involved in the discussion agree the start up process
needs to be modified in order to properly address this problem. Most of the
people agree the modification is not trivial.
