What is /dev/pts/3? It should name an existing terminal.

Not sure why is dumb terminal relevant here.
Anyway, AFAIK the way to do this is as follows:
gdb ./emacs
(gdb) tty /dev/SOMETHING
(gdb) r -Q -t /dev/SOMETHING
(Not sure if -t /dev/SOMETHING is necessary.)
But there seems to be some bug (or feature) in Emacs: it says "emacs:
Could not open file: /dev/tty" and quits. Other programs work as
expected with the above recipe. Maybe some Posix guru can find out
what's wrong or how to work around that.
