Work around a GNO kernel bug that could cause crashes in error cases.

The issue is that the kernel's pty structures get corrupted if the master side of a pty is opened and then closed without the slave side having been opened. This can happen with telnetd in various error cases. The workaround is to arrange for the slave side to be opened just before telnetd exits in those cases.
