uucp ERRLOG file question

[John Danner]

On a Sun4/260 runnign SUNOS4.0, I am getting the following message written
to /usr/spool/uucp/ERRLOG by uucico:

ASSERT ERROR (uucico)  pid: 3707  (7/10-22:15) STTY FAILED  (-1)

Can anyone tell me what the error means and how to fix it.  Doing a
uupoll sitename, I have no problem.  uucico is being invoked by cron with
the following:   su uucp < /usr/lib/uucp/uucp.poll and uucp's startup prog
is /usr/lib/uucp/uucico.
