The number of ttys is limited by the size of the global shared memory
area, 64K.  Right now this shared mem area is not used completely.  We
should be able to handle 128 ttys without much of a problem.  I applied
a patch for that and uploaded new developer snapshots to
https://cygwin.com/snapshots/  Please give it a try.
