I had made the manual tweak of commenting out the HAVE_DEV_PTMX define in config.h (as suggested by Bart) in order to get rid of a hang in the tests, and reverting that change on one of my two test systems does cause the early Y* tests to start failing again. Strangely, reverting this change on the other test system I was using (which I did try last night) did not cause these failures (just the aforementioned hang), so I had assumed that this change was unrelated to the failures based on that. Instead, it just appears to affect different Linux setups differently. ..wayne..
