sshd cannot alloc pty under fc3t1

I am attempting to ssh from an FC1 machine to a new fc3t1 install and
the attempt hangs with a failure to allocate a pty on the fc3t1 box.

the system is setup correctly, and .ssh/known_hosts is working properly.

/var/log/secure says:

Jul 14 10:15:15 tembo sshd[5357]: pam_succeed_if: requirement "uid < 100" not met by user "ggw"
Jul 14 10:15:15 tembo sshd[5357]: Accepted password for ggw from ::ffff:10.11.12.1 port 52980 ssh2
Jul 14 10:16:35 tembo sshd[5357]: error: openpty: No such file or directory
Jul 14 10:16:35 tembo sshd[5359]: error: session_pty_req: session 0 alloc failed

The openpty also fails for attempts by root.  Examination of -v -v ssh
doesn't reveal anything relevant to ptys.

Anyone else seeing this?
