UUCP over TCP/IP under SCO Xenix 2.3.2

Do us a favor: if the subject matter is so damned clear as to warrant a
"yes/no", don't bother to answer; because it usually isn't so clear.

SCO Xenix docs have nothing on setting up UUCP via SCO TCP/IP.  More, the
Admin. Guide includes misleading info about this "Devconfig" file; plus
they included an "nls" line in the Dialers file that uucico simply picks
up and echos the parameters as send-expect sequence!

If the base package uucico is incapable of using network services, why
didn't/don't they include a uucico that works with Streams in the
Streams or TCP/IP run-time?  Are they too stupid to work one out?
