When using udev in Gentoo, it creates tons of devices in /dev, and there are 256 pty devices, which makes me wonder how it couldn't allocate one - or maybe the fact that there are so many is part of the problem.  I've attached the list of pty devices that Gentoo creates in case it's useful.  I disabled that functionality of Gentoo, and now there are no pty devices in /dev - and I haven't been able to reproduce the problem since.

I wonder - if the problem is really that it can't allocate a pty device, shouldn't it print an error message and exit rather than freeze?
