If you don't have the source, then since you're running on SunOS 4.0 (if
you weren't, you wouldn't have CRTSCTS) you can set the CRTSCTS bit on
the port by including "crtscts" in the list of tty settings in the "ms"
capability in the "printcap" file.  You don't have to hack the source up
just to turn CRTSCTS on....
