I asked about rptys. The speedy and marvelous response came from

Hi Richard,
In Dec UNIX 3.2C rpty's were taken out of the static kernel parmaters and   
put into sysconfig, so that you don't have to rebuild the kernel each   
time you increase rpty's.  This important piece of information is buried   
somewhere in the release notes, but you'll have to look hard to find it!
You should create the following entry in /etc/sysconfigtab.  Tabs instead   
of spaces are important as this is a stanza compliant file:
pts:
        nptys=1500
Please note that the entry is nptys and not rptys.  You should remove the   
rpty entry from your config file before your next kernel rebuild.
Hope this helps,
Michael Long.
