Ah, thanks Maxim.

The poignant comment is:

PR kern/89528:
Ouch! I found a comment in tty_pty.c that it doesn't deallocate
pty's anymore. Not a single destroy_dev() is called by tty_pty.c.
This means the FreeBSD kernel leaks a lot of cdev's and thus
ucred's and my patch is working around another bug.
