I dont know about that for iBCS - and even if it does its a lesser issue
since iBCS calls the ibcs open routine not the unix one and could vanish
away anyway. While you are doing ptmx to hand out ptys you might want to
make /dev/tcp hand out tcp sockets and /dev/udp hand out udp sockets for
Alexey's TLI emulation libraries - assuming its easy anyway :0
