They still don't do it properly, at least on my 3B2/600G (aka 1000/80)
running SysVr3.2.2.  In order to dial out with cu or uucp, I have to force
DCD high which effectively means I can't do full modem control on bi-directional
lines.  It seems uugetty is still broken :-(

Anyone got a working replacement source that is PD (I don;t have a source
license)?
