Console switching is as far as I know handled by the kernel.  The
sysvinit system do not affect it in any way.  Because of this, I
suspect this bug should be reassigned to some kernel package, but I am
not sure which.  Which kernel version are you using, and which kernel
did not have this problem?

Happy hacking,
