Hi Ken:

Thank you very much, considering that it must be
cold and late out there!

Maybe I'm not an "expert" and I didn't quite understand your "drift":

1.  In '.config' I had UNIX98_PTYS=y all along.
2.  in 'make menuconfig' I went in General Setup
and I made myself an expert.
3.  In devices -> character
I found Unix98 PTY now available for change:  [Y]
(before it was just pre-selected (ordained?) for you)
4.  Optionally,
make oldconfig
5 make and make_install
6 Reboot

Same (unfortunate) result:
NO /dev/pty

('mountfs' never misses to remind you of that!)

As I said, maybe you want me to go somewhere deeper
(bool, default, etc.).  In that case please give me more
non-expert details.

Thanks again and Good night,
-- Alex
