Yup, I was quite baffled to find macserial actually builds as a module now
:-)

Well, fax send craps out with a segfault, and efax won't dial unless I
beat it into submission with -iX3 (I'm behind a PBS with no dialtones).
Other than that, it seems to talk to the modem OK. It just doesn's send
successfully (only a few scan lines get sent before the remote machine
chokes).

Which one of these problems to you have? Or maybe a new one?
