Subject: bin/4168: Request for init to handle pppd

>Description:
/sbin/init can't handle spawning a pppd process because it wants to
add the tty name at the end. I've been running a modified /sbin/init
for over a year spawning pppd with several /etc/ttys entries like
tty01 "/usr/sbin/pppd /dev/tty01 115200 -detach" unknown on
pppd wants the tty as a first argument.
If that didn't change recently it is wrong.
tty00 "/usr/sbin/pppd -detach 38400" unknown on insecure rtscts
works perfectly for me.
