Bug#602120: Syscons patch

It uses built-in termcap entries. I am not sure whether the FreeBSD
installer even attempts to hide the cursor. If I run sysinstall
separately.

FreeBSD uses termcap, so comparing it could be a bit hard. I think you'd
better first run `infocmp' on the Debian box to see how it implements
civis.
