This 'squauking' _definately_ occurred under 3.51's uucico as much as
it did under 3.5's (having battled with both for about an equal amount
of time ...)  The major audible change is that this uucico fix does
not turn on the speaker when it dials, like 3.5.  3.51's original
uucico turned the speaker on, which was very annoying.

Anyways, I still have the original 3.51 and 3.5 uucico's online, so
here are the lengths and checksums (posted, because others may have
interest):

---s--x--x  1 uucp    bin       71372 Jan 18 18:17 /usr/lib/uucp/uucico
