I remember porting the "portable version" of OpenSSH to BeOS (back when I
used it, anyway)
Almost all of the work (implementing the random device was the other hard
work :P) was changing the calls to open/close ttys, and redirect them to
places, in ways that were assumed to be portable, but were not.

Just a cautionary note.
