I haven't figured the details out, but I believe it is more of a *getty config issue than anything else.

In any case, if this is the way other platforms go, I have no issues, mips64 should follow that ... I was just too lazy to loop over all the cpus and print essentially the same information, like all the other architectures do. It shouldn't be too difficult to do it though, if somebody really cares.
