Yes.
As a workaround, try
exec 2<>/dev/console
before using "more" from the miniroot single user shell.

In the past, the /sbin/sulogin command in the miniroot
image was replaced by a shell script, and this shell script
messes around with the stdin/stdout/stderr file descriptors.
In the past, problem was that stderr became write-only, but
at least upto snv-75a /sbin/sulogin was OK, and at least
opened stderr in O_RDWR more.
