Bug#788580: /dev/pts workaround

Hi,

I had one a hook script that tried to start screen when my build's failed, and 
that also failed with the no pts problem.

Instead of doing the cowbuilder login as suggested by Axel Beckert I wrote a D 
hook :

-- D01pty---
#!/bin/sh
mount -t devpts none /dev/pts
---end---

which at least solved my problems with launching my screen hook.

Given the sequencing of hooks it should also help with building.

But a built in solution would be nice.

Diane
