Bruno Haible reported that grantpt and unlockpt report success even on 
invalid fds.  This program fails the assertion at line 7:

#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <assert.h>
int main (void)
{
   assert (grantpt (-1) == -1);
   assert (errno == EBADF);
   errno = 0;
   assert (grantpt (99) == -1);
   assert (errno == EBADF);
   return 0;
}
