Ugh, I know I need to keep more up to date. Still on glibc 2.10.1 too. I don't think I've rebuilt this system in something like 4 years. :-/ (The reason I haven't is that I use this as my main system, so rebuilding LFS means also rebuilding a lot of BLFS, or at least enough to get ff, thunderbird, and chrome (with nacl) working, and preferably a bunch of games too.) I should probably just make another LV to build recent books into and use for this kind of investigation, leaving the main system to ... well, shall we say, age. :-P > In any case, remounting /dev/pts with the proper options did work for > ./testpt.

OK, let me submit that change then. >> ...And now that I say that, I think I have a change hanging around >> in my local svn repo that I never submitted, that adds this to this >> chapter 6 mount command.
