When does this occur?  I guess this is during initialization.  Is it
really necessary to switch to xterm mode at all at that time?  If not,
it might be simpler to just

-  if (con_is_legacy)
+  if (con_is_legacy || !shared_console_info)

at the start of the functions and only switch to xterm mode when
fully up and running.

Btw., that should be

         if (!shared_console_info
             || InterlockedIncrement (&con.xterm_mode_input) == 1)

Note the position of the ||
