Specifying tty @console is supposed to bring up a getty on the active console. But when multiple consoles are active, no getty will be available on any of them.
This is because /sys/class/tty/console/active is assumed to only contain a single tty. When multiple consoles are active this files shows them all in a space separated list, e.g. tty0 ttyAMA0.
Fixing the parse error is easy. The hard question is: how to we handle this functionally? Do we spawn a getty for each console listed? Only the first?

I think we need to start a getty on each one. That's the only thing that makes sense. The @console is special anyway, so having another exception for it should be OK.
