While they're at it, Sun and friends (enemies?) should fix UUCICO to
support 4.2BSD UUCP's ability to specify ODD or EVEN parity when dialing
into the remote system.  We could have used this feature.  Also, Sun's
UUCICO faults if there isn't a "send" sequence after the last "expect"
sequence or if any "send" sequence consists solely of "\c".  There's also
a third case where it faults.  I could look it up if anyone cares.  This was
a year ago, maybe it's fixed by now.
