…otherwise try to clone it as a device node On most contemporary distros /dev/ptmx is a device node, and /dev/pts/ptmx has 000 inaccessible permissions. In those cases the symlink /dev/ptmx -> /dev/pts/ptmx breaks the pseudo tty support. In that case we better clone the device node. OTOH, in nspawn containers (and possibly others), /dev/pts/ptmx has normal permissions, and /dev/ptmx is a symlink. In that case make the same symlink. fixes #7878
