Did you happen to compile with GCC by any chance?  If so, did you remember
to supply the -traditional option?  If you didn't, this is what you're
probably going to get.  Use -traditional, and the problem should go away...

I had the same problem with a Sun3 running SunOS 4.  Here is the exact
error message ...

set pty modes: Inappropriate ioctl for device
IOT trap (core dumped)

I compiled this with gcc -O -traditional -c ...  The results were the
same with the Sun C compiler too.  The -O might have done it, but it
doesn't sound like it from the error message.
