But does ctty give you a controlling terminal on that sh?  I just tried it 
again (./linux rootfstype=hostfs rw LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 
init=/path/to/ctty /bin/sh) and it didn't still give me a controlling 
terminal.

I.E. this isn't a solution for me because in the context I care about, it 
doesn't work.
