UUCP and flow control

[Marty Sasaki]

The Sytek network has real problems with flow control. We have things
set up so that XON/XOFF flow control is the default. We have tried
turning flow control off on the line, and then turning it back on.
It turns out that you can't reliably do this, so the state of the
line is unknown. The solution of checking the line status sometimes
doesn't work either. The problem became so difficult, that we abandoned
using the Sytek for UUCP.
