This confirms my fears that my bug #429616 wouldn't be fixed quickly as
this is trailing for 4 years. At least here it was ranked medium while
mine was ranked low.
I've investigated a bit and it seems that the culprit is in usplash.c,
where the vt is opened, activated on vt8 by ioctl VT_ACTIVATE,
I confirm this behavior in Gutsy and current Hardy a4

I (the OP) am running Dapper now. It just occured to me that the bug is
still there. Switch to another user goes to console #9, while #8 is
dead displaying the last boot messages.
/usr/sbin/lsof shows no process on tty8, X on tty7 and gettys on tty1-6.
So it does not look like there are obvious
LANG=C deallocvt 8
VT_DISALLOCATE: Device or resource busy
deallocvt: could not deallocate console 8
How could I find out what is still using console #8 as lsof says nothing?
ps fuxaww
does not show any process associated with tty8.
