} Using the /dev/pts stuff might break some of the line statistics scripts.
} I remember having to fix up $CS_ROOT/lib/wtmp.c on CCN for this.

     Yes, this could be a problem.  I've hacked on tq to support /dev/pts
(needed for Solaris 2.x, or any other SVR4 system).  But, tq is currently
a major mess.  We have somebody locally looking at cleaning it up or
rewriting it.

     With a quick look, wtmp.c isn't going to care about this, but it
does need some cleanup.  However, whatever calls wtmp.c might care.
