No, it doesn't work yet.  I was playing with it yesterday.  The ucom
did appear, but I was having trouble with pilot/jpilot and "device not
configured" errors.  I tried mknod ucom0 138 128 and mknod ucom0 138 0
to no avail...  I thought I was missing the point, that's why I asked
tonight.

For what it's worth though, the MFC of the ufm driver works fine.
