If he were using BSD, he might not have "pg".

Is "pty" completely incapable of running under any system not BSD? (Just
because something isn't BSD doesn't mean it doesn't have pseudo-ttys;
even if they're different in some ways from BSD ptys, e.g.  the S5R4
ptys, it may be possible to port "pty" to that system.)
