A little further information is now available.  If I physically
turn off the modem, it will cause the line to reset.  My guess is
that this turns off dsr, but a simple line hangup is not read by
the tower as a dropped line.  Of course, this is difficult to do
from 140 miles away, and inconvenient if closer.  Has anyone solved
this problem with processes that won't die on a getty line with
any simpler techniques?
