It is good to hear that the last person who asked about this problem could fix it by simply modifying /etc/ttys. However, some people are not so lucky, and are faced with creeping death on machines that have their sio lines in use. I have made a few simple changes to getty that I will describe to anyone who asks. Anyone with a Unix source license who makes the changes to getty will not see this problem reappear, or will at least slow it down to the point where it no longer damages your node.
