We have a Microvax-II with a DHV11.  We're using the DHU driver from
Berkeley, running 4.3BSD.  The DHV passes its hardware diagnostics perfectly.
However, when the system is running, the DHV completely ignores modem
controls (DTR, CTS, RTS and DCD).  Debug code in the driver shows that the
board thinks it is asserting DTR at the right times (when in fact DTR is
*never* raised).  Also the board never sees DCD.  Has anybody else seen
this?  We're starting to get a bit annoyed here...
