!!! HELP !!! Problem with UNIX cu

[John F. Haugh II]

the cu(1) we have tries to open the port before the dialer is called.  cu
doesn't open the port O_NDELAY, so cu hangs and never gets to call the
dialer, which would have opened the port correctly and returned with DCD
asserted, which would have allowed cu to do anything it wanted.

having typed all that ... does anyone have a clone of cu?
