	Take a look at how AT&T's recent modems handle DCD and you'll see the
thought behind it.  A 22xx series will drop DCD momentarily when carrier is
lost, then turn it back on again.  It makes using a non-AT&T modem difficult,
but it can be done.
	By the way... Has anyone had this happen?  Set stty hupcl, su to root,
exit, then exit or control-D again?  Here it intermittently causes DTR not to
go off.
