What happens if you run the following command?
daemon -cf mysqld_safe
The point is that FreeBSD's pts(4) driver only deallocates TTYs when
it's really sure nothing uses it anymore. Even if there is not a single
file descriptor referring to the slave device, it has to wait until
there exist no processes which have the TTY as its controlling TTY.
The `pstat -t' command is quite useful to figure out whether there is
still a session associated with the TTY.
