Subject: 26.3; OpenBSD now has posix_openpt(3)

OpenBSD now has posix_openpt(3), emacs should use that.
A diff is attached.

Currently emacs uses an old way which actually causes a problem.  I am
using gnupg through Mew(*1) which run on emacs, Mew seems to create a
process without a pty regardless it specifies "process-connection-type
pty" properly.  The pty is required to pass the passphrase.

Thank you very much for taking time to answer our questions.  I've now
installed the patch on the master branch.
