Works flawlessly for me. I don't even bother to dial first
before invoking the slattach. I just pass the chat script
to slattach as the "redial on carrier loss" script with the
 -r option.  It forks the script off, a few seconds after
 starting up, when it realizes it does not have carrier detect.

I'm running a vanilla 2.1.0-950726-SNAP. 

(I know, this is the current mailing list, and I'm not
running current, but I provide this information just a 
point of reference.)
