:Hi,
:
:I changed the NetBSD sources (which have the identical bug) and it 
:now it works as it should. i.e. writes to the pseudo terminal block,
:don't overflow the real tty. I have not done any testing with FreeBSD.
:
:The bug is easy to reproduce and the fix is correspondingly easy to verify.
:I don't mind testing it with FreeBSD too but it'll have to wait for a 
:couple of days.
:
:best
:Neel

    Ok.  I'm committing the changes to the FreeBSD tree over the next
    few days, so if you wind up testing it on FreeBSD you may have to
    back them out for your tests.  Testing would be nice but since you've
    already done it all on NetBSD there isn't any great need to repeat
    it again on FreeBSD.

    Again, thanks for pointing out the bug!
