Hi,
   I have just upgraded from 3.2b to 3.2g and I note from the
release notes for 3.2c that the old syntax

pseudo-device rpty 1024

for the kernal configuration has changed.

The release notes say its now

option RPTY

There is no mention of numbers here, does this mean that the kernel
will allocate pseudo-devices based on the number of devices in the /dev
directory?, or do I have to add

pseudo-device pty 1024


if this is so does the fact that I'm using pty's instead of
rpty's effect the /dev files, do I have to MAKEDEV PTY_* again.
