It does have one problem I noticed, at least with the sup I'm running
on the sun3: if you log in to kd, ps prints "kd" in the "TTY" column.
This is reasonable.  But "ps atkd" complains about being unable to find
/dev/ttykd!  (Symlinking /dev/ttykd -> /dev/kd cured it for me.)

I suppose this is really a bug in ps....
