I cannot say I particularly agree with that.  I would consider both
`chdir' and `chroot' being terms familiar to anyone who would actually
want to configure them, and the terms map cleanly to the mingetty(8).

In any case, I do appreciate the review and I have sent a v3 with the
requested changes.

Have a nice day,
Tomas
