simplify ctermid
opening /dev/tty then using ttyname_r on it does not produce a canonical terminal name; it simply yields "/dev/tty". it would be possible to make ctermid determine the actual controlling terminal device via field 7 of /proc/self/stat, but doing so would introduce a buffer overflow into applications built with L_ctermid==9, which glibc defines, adversely affecting the quality of ABI compat.
