Here is an entire different approach, I don't know if it is sane or not: when *mounting* the devpts filesystem, it could automagically create the bins mount for ptmx in the parent of its mount point. Presumably the would be a mount option to disable that behavior. Does anyone see an obvious problem with that? -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail. Please excuse brevity and formatting.
