Has anyone running RISC/os 4.50 managed to get both uugetty and uucp to work
together on a single serial line?  As far as I've been able to determine,
uugetty never removes its lock file in /usr/spool/locks, regardless of the
timeout specified on the command line, and consequently uucp always claims
that the line is in use.  I believe that this used to work correctly under
4.10 (on a 2030).
