Bug introduced by 9dca441670
xfree86: add a hook to replace the new console handler.
console_handler was not being set, making the server eat up CPU spinning
in WaitForSomething selecting consoleFd over and over again, every time
trying to unregister drain_console without success due to
console_handler being NULL.
Let's just fix the unregistration in xf86SetConsoleHandler() and use that.
But wait, there could be a catch: If some driver replaced the handler using
xf86SetConsoleHandler(), the unregistration in xf86CloseConsole will unregister
that one. I don't understand Xorg well enough to know whether this poses a
problem (could mess up driver deinit somehow or something like that). As it is,
xf86SetConsoleHandler() doesn't offer any way to prevent this (i.e. check which
handler is currently registered).
I had been using it for two days on my machine that previously hit 100% CPU
several times a day. That has now gone away without any new problems appearing.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
