SVN rev 183438 on 2008-09-28 16:44:15Z by ed Don't automatically prepend the "tty" prefix to `pkill -t' arguments. Because we now enforce UNIX98-style PTY's, we now use a lot of TTY's that don't have the traditional /dev/ttyXX naming scheme. pkill(1)'s -t flag automatically prepended the word "tty" to each TTY that was passed on the command line. This meant that `pkill -t pts/0' was actually converted to /dev/ttypts/0. Disable this broken behaviour for now.
Once we've decided on the right long-term fix, it should be an MFC candidate so that 7.x userspaces work properly on 8.x kernels in the future.
