When, I run gnome-terminal then open few new tabs and I am seeing the 
gnome-pty-helper starts to get crazy and uses a lot of CPU..

=====================
9709 mezz     120    0  9480K  6204K RUN      0:30 70.28% 60.79% 
gnome-pty-helper
=====================

I saw that very often when I am trying to debug Metacity and AbiWord2 run 
under the gdb. I tried to use gdb on it like gdb gnome-pty-helper <pid>.. I 
don't know if it's useful..

=====================
# gdb gnome-pty-helper 9709
[..copyright stuff..]

Attaching to program: /usr/X11R6/bin/gnome-pty-helper, process 9709
0x283f4023 in ?? ()
(gdb) bt
#0  0x283f4023 in ?? ()
#1  0x08049ddb in __do_global_ctors_aux ()
#2  0x08049315 in open_ptys (utmp=-1077936960, wtmp=0, lastlog=-1077936943)
    at gnome-pty-helper.c:554
=====================

Cheers,
Mezz
