Summary: bbox login doesn't chown/chmod /dev/vcs[a]NN devices
on linux. Util-linux one does.
Description:
The result is that Midnight Commander is not able to toggle panels on Linux
virtual consoles.
I suggest not coding that functionality into login, but providing an
option to run custom script after user is authenticated, but before setuid
to $uid is done.
This way complexity of all imaginable custom needs (Linux's /dev/vcs[a]s
are an example of a custom hack needed for a particular platform) will be
kept separate.
The option may take form of a magic env variable, like
LOGIN_PRESUID_SCRIPT=xxx.

...separate from login.c code

Using suitable LOGIN_PRE_SUID_SCRIPT this can be handled.
