I didn't see this until now as I'm mid house move so not following a
lot of l/k.

If you need a tiny tiny tty layer console for some kind of not quite
mini-Linux please just steal the one from Fuzix or something similar
thats only a couple of K in size and only needs extremely simple send
byte/rx byte type handlers.

Alternatively just compile out tty support entirely. What do you
actually need ? Console doesn't need tty layer and if you have a
debug/management interface that doesn't have to be tty and text based
either.

Being able to compile out tty support would be useful, having two tty
layers that are intertwined and now both totally unmaintable is not
IMHO progress.
