	Getty on BSD systems allows login prompts as long as 512 bytes,
	and some systems use most of them.  My uucico (AIX 2.2.1) says
	'enough, already' after about 200 bytes and continues with the
	next step in the chat script.

	Is there a simple way to get uucico to accept long prompts?
	I'm reluctant to write a complicated expect/send sequence that
	would be broken by a minor change in the prompt.
