Hi,
This has been reported against the Debian BTS.
The current error message when forkpty() fails is not clear or
useful. (Arguably, the erro message in the child branch cold also be
improved) The following patch makes indicate what went wrong. Probably
something better than this could be devised, but this is still a lot
better than the current code.
