Ok, it was a dumb mistake. I should have looked in /dev/pts not at
/dev/pty*. Thanks to David Evans.
------
You should be looking in /dev/pts/*. i.e.
ls /dev/pts/* | wc -l
as ptys are for bsd style programs. More details are in Casper Dik's
FAQ called:
Increasing the number of ptys: The truth about sadcnt, nautopush, pt_cnt and
npty
