    Problem Text
    The VSX supports the use of pseudo-terminals as the loopback for testing
    the general terminal interface (see rel. notes VSX 4.2.4). There is told,
    that typical pseudo-terminal implementations do not fully support the
    general terminal interface, so failures can be expected in the
    POSIX.os/devclass area.
    The fact is, that nearly every POSIX.os/devclass test fails by using
    pseudo-terminals.

    Review Response
    The evidence given above does not provide sufficient information to allow
    a decision to be made as to the appropriateness of this request. The
    statement that "nearly every POSIX.os/devclass test fails by using
    pseudo-terminals" suggests that there is a far more significant problem
    than is stated in this request relating to a single test. If this is
    truly the case, then this should be addressed through the normal support
    channels. The pseudo-terminal tests have previously worked in a number of
    different environments and no error reports are outstanding relating to a
    generic fault in VSX 4.2.4. This request should be addressed to support and
    no waiver should be granted until further information is available.
