Mark's right, it takes two CR's to wake up the Ven-tel MD212 +2 modem.
My L.sys entry should have read:

system Any cul0 1200 cul0 "" ^M^M  $-^M-$ k^M call:-k^M-call: 0000000^M line!^G-r^M-line!^G-r^M-line!^G-r^M-line!^G ^M ogin:-^M-ogin: uucp ssword: xxxxxx

Mine almost always wakes up without retries, but I have noticed that the
first attempt at dialing ALWAYS terminates in "...Operator Abort", meaning
that a garbage character had gotten to the modem before it can come on line.
It usually takes two more attempts to get through (the second usually gives
"..Busy", and the third completes).  This is all a bit kludgey, but in practice
it has worked pretty well for us.  In fact, the machine I use this with (a
Plexus P/25) doesn't have any source code on it, so this saved my having
to port over a copy and hack a dialer into it.
