Uh, trust the code:

And technically, if you are willing to dig around a little bit for the information (exercise left up to the student), it's pretty trivial to get it up to 256 without hacking any source code.

there may be 128 /dev/pty there, but if you attempt to open more then 32 shell's, you'll find the limit of 32 and resulting fork/resource errors.
