Pressing ctrl+alt+F1 shuts down FreeBSD

Often when I press ctrl+alt+F1 FreeBSD (7.1) shuts downs immediately. Is this a known bug? Or can this be disabled somewhere (much like ctrl+alt+backspace)?
 
Normally, Ctrl-alt-F1 drops to 80x25 textmode when you are in Xorg.
In textmode Ctrl-alt-F1 switches to the first virtual terminal, the same as Alt-F1. I think your graphics card doesn't like the way FreeBSD switches back to textmode.
Does your Xorg.log say anything?
