Opens of /dev/ptmx don't use tty_open() so debug messages are not printed for those opens; print a debug message with the open count (which must always be 1) if TTY_DEBUG_HANGUP is defined. NB: Each tty core source file undefs support for debug messages. The relevant source file must be patched/edited to enable these messages.
