I'm curious. Why would you need uugetty? As I understand it, uugetty's
sole purpose in life is to allow incoming and outgoing calls on the same
tty port - and Microport's serial driver, admittedly some of the
buggiest code known to man for a time, at least does that well and
cleanly. Just point your gettys to ttyM# and use tty# for your outgoing
calls. It works very well.
