I had to add '-f' to force it, but this finally worked:

  chpst -P /usr/bin/openvt -c 1 -w -f -- /sbin/mingetty --noclear tty1

Still not sure why...the call trace for mingetty by itself and
mingetty run via openvt is remarkably similar.  I'm using agetty now, which
requires fewer hoops to jump through, so I'll probably stick with it for
the time being.
