That's a good point.  I guess it slipped us, docs people, because we
considered it ``obvious''.  I am 100% certain than all external serial
modems are supported.  The faq has some stuff about modem support.
There are a few places in the Handbook and the articles collection
that modems are mentioned too.

What would you look for in the release notes about modems' support?
Would a simple paragraph like the following be ok?

	All external serial modems should work with FreeBSD out of the
	box.  Some USB modems work too.  The XXX type of USB modems
	don't work because "foo".  Those modems that are "designed for
	Windows" can not work with FreeBSD except for the "bar" type.

Giorgos.
