Yeah, this was the problem.  I missed this option I guess.  Thanks for 
the replies
from everyone.  I recompiled and now kissattach is behaving well.   I 
just went in
the kernel and turned on ham radio, oops.  Maybe I'll make some notes on 
my website, how
"Legacy PTY" is needed. 

I guess as long as this Legacy PTY stuff is still around this isn't a 
huge problem.
Am going to now move on to the rest of the setup.
