kernel blocks with low memory and syscons setting a high res mode / scrollback

I just booted with hw.physmem=32m.  I have my allscreens_flags set to -h 
4700 MODE_279.  When processing the allscreens_flags in rc.d, the system 
blocks (not hangs) while booting, ^T says "no controlling terminal".  No 
mode change occured.  Same happened with 48m, just with a mode change, 
so I suspect it to have worked for one screen but then not for another.
