Using FreeBSD 6.0 I get a pty problem after a while 
E.g., rlwrap
rlwrap: warning: Could not get controlling terminal for rlwrap: Device
not configured rlwrap: error: read error on master pty: No such file or
directory

Of course, it happens with other programs as well. It seems to be a
known problem as I saw from another post.

Does anybody have at least a workaround?
