Are you running the program using the iBCS binary standard emulation? 
If so, you might get a better luck asking them.

As an alternative, you could build an alternate telnetd (or xterm) that
use the old BSD tty's and make it listen on an other port (or save under
a different name).

/usr/doc/ibcs2 has some documentation on that. (and in Tools, a trace
utility).


If you have the source and it compiles, then change the code that reject
/dev/pts/1 as a tty. "isatty" should be use instead.
