Check your ptys, ie. /dev/ttyp*.  Be sure you have enough of them created
in the chrooted /dev/.  It may want an /etc/ttys too.

When all else fails, do something like add a sleep in there before the
telnetd is run and then do a ktrace -i on the process and see what it
tries to open just before it dies.
