4.2 script problem

  The program script has stopped working on our 750 (still works on our 780).
It types out "Script started, file is typescript" then "Stopped (tty input)".
As best as I can tell the forked shell is trying to read from the terminal
rather than a tty pseudo-device.  I tried removing them all and then "MAKEDEV
pty0" in /dev but the problem persists.  Is there some way that the pseudo-
terminals can stop working that anybody knows of?  We run 4.2 BSD.  Thanks.
