linux 2.6.26 vt back_color_erase

Hello!

Current linux kernel has broken bce semantics. Now insert_line and
delete_line clear the new lines with default color and not with the current
background as they should, and what is expected by ncurses.

vc->vc_scrl_erase_char was introduced in 2.6.26 for some reason. I beleave
this change should be backed out.
