I've noticed this bug with the On Board Modem, but do not experience
this using external modems.  Is seems tha OBM responds as though the
connection was successful and carrier detected.  This only happens after
the connection attempt times out.  Try it manually with

$ /usr/lib/uucp/uucico -r1 -s<SYSTEM-NAME> -x5
