I was able to hack with the 1.1.5R kernel to get pty to work with SLIP
over telnet.  It worked okay, but then after a while it would just hang
for several seconds and take a minute to fully recover.

I would like FreeBSD 2.X to be able to do SLIP/PPP over a pty.
I don't see anything inhibiting that possibility, do you?
If not, lets do it!
