Yes, v8 stty ignores all ioctl results! v8 has cons.c for the

I have no clue about v8 but at least in v7 these were
different drivers. Looking at v7/usr/sys/dev/kl.c I don't see
klioctl() like dzioctl() in the dz driver. So my guess is
console ioctls return EINVAL.
That would seem to indicate that stty isn't checking for ioctl()
failure. Or at least it isn't displaying an error message if that
happens.
