pseudo-device pty >32

from pty(4)

In configuring, if an optional count is given in the specification, that
number of pseudo terminal pairs are configured; the default count is 32.


unfortunately, it appears this is a compile time option from what I've been able to find thus far and I continue to run into this limit almost daily. it has definitely become a pain point. would be ideal if it was at least doubled in the default kernel -- or, a runtime variable. thoughts?

there have been previous threads [1] on the topic, dating back to 2002.

thanks,

-tbaur
