+Interacting with NetBSD serial console boot blocks no longer works
+
+The NetBSD boot blocks display a menu allowing the user to make a
+selection using the keyboard.  For example, when booting a NetBSD
+installation CD-ROM, the menu looks like this:
+
+         1. Install NetBSD
+         2. Install NetBSD (no ACPI)
+         3. Install NetBSD (no ACPI, no SMP)
+         4. Drop to boot prompt
+
+    Choose an option; RETURN for default; SPACE to stop countdown.
+    Option 1 will be chosen in 30 seconds.
+
+When booting NetBSD in a recent qemu using an emulated serial console,
+making this menu selection no longer works: when you type the selected
+number, the keyboard input is ignored, and the 30-second countdown
+continues.  In older versions of qemu, it works.
+
+To reproduce the problem, run:
+
+   wget http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-7.1.1/amd64/installation/cdrom/boot-com.iso
+   qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -cdrom boot-com.iso
+
+During the 30-second countdown, press 4
+
+Expected behavior: The countdown stops and you get a ">" prompt
+
+Incorrect behavior: The countdown continues
+
+There may also be some corruption of the terminal output; for example,
+"Option 1 will be chosen in 30 seconds" may be displayed as "Option 1
+will be chosen in p0 seconds".
+
+Using bisection, I have determined that the problem appeared with qemu
+commit 083fab0290f2c40d3d04f7f22eed9c8f2d5b6787, in which seabios was
+updated to 1.11 prerelease, and the problem is still there as of
+commit 7398166ddf7c6dbbc9cae6ac69bb2feda14b40ac.  The host operating
+system used for the tests was Debian 9 x86_64.
+
+Credit for discovering this bug goes to Paul Goyette.
