recent kernels do not have bsd-style pty support anymore (at least not
"by default").
kissattach from the cvs head also supports unix98-ptys.
Excerpt from the man page:
The tty argument will typically be that of a serial port with a KISS or
6PACK TNC attached, although it could be a pseudo tty or a KISS port
emulator such as an SCC card. Kissattach supports BSD-style pseudo-ter-
minals as well as the Unix98 pty's. If the tty argument is "/dev/ptmx",
then Unix98 behaviour will automaticaly take effekt. With Unix98 pty's,
the slave tty name could not be forseen. That's why kissattach will
print the corresponding slave pty name as a separate line on stdout.

And yes, we have in mind that it's a good idea to get it into the next
debian release. There are just some parts left that should go in.
