First off,  Break is NOT a character, it is a state of the line, i.e.
it is a real long SPACE (that is the line is low, not the space char)

So therefore, a modem can not be responsible for sending/not-sending
a break...  If you are using it with a micro simulating a terminal,
it is a problem with your terminal program... Most of the tty programs
I have seen do not have the ability to send breaks...
