    '''This implements a substitute for the forkpty system call. This
    should be more portable than the pty.fork() function. Specifically,
    this should work on Solaris.

Modified 10.06.05 by Geoff Marshall: Implemented __fork_pty() method to
    resolve the issue with Python's pty.fork() not supporting Solaris,
    particularly ssh. Based on patch to posixmodule.c authored by Noah
    Spurrier::
