Log:
  Block when initially opening a TTY multiple times.
  
  In the original MPSAFE TTY code, I changed the behaviour by returning
  EBUSY. I thought this made more sense, because it's basically a race to
  see who gets the TTY first.
  
  It turns out this is not a good change, because it also causes EBUSY to
  be returned when another process is closing the TTY. This can happen
  during startup, when /etc/rc (or one of its children) is still busy
  draining its data and /sbin/init is attempting to open the TTY to spawn
  a getty.
