  Modified files:
    sys/sys              conf.h 
  Log:
  Add a new group definition to sys/conf.h: GID_TTY.
  
  Our current TTY layer uses a set-uid application called ptchown to
  change ownership of a PTY slave device. The new TTY layer implements
  this functionality through a new ioctl().
  
  By accident I discovered Darwin's TTY layer also uses this approach.
  Because of this, they also have a GID_TTY.
