I think more verbose log message (and a call for review) is preferred.

I guess it should be:
"Make sysinst also create a default entry of a ptyfs on /dev/pts
 in /etc/fstab on the target disk as well as kernfs and procfs,"
but your log message may imply that INSTALL kernels should have
"file-system PTYFS" option.

It might also be better to post diffs to a list directly
rather than via URL (unless it's too large to post) so that
more people would take a look at and comment about it properly.
