From pty/master.c:

   (void) lseek(fdsess,(long) 0,0);
   (void) read(fdsess,(char *) &newuid,sizeof(int));
   (void) sprintf(newsuid,"%d",newuid);

   (void) chdir("..");
   if (chdir(newsuid) == -1)
    {
     (void) mkdir(newsuid,0700);
     (void) chdir(newsuid);
    }

   (void) sprintf(foo,"../%d/%s",uid,fnsess);
   (void) rename(foo,fnsess);

   (void) sprintf(foo,"../%d/%s",uid,fnre);
   (void) rename(foo,fnre); /* in case we're already disconnected */
