In any case, this not true. Slattach _not aborts_ if no redial-command is
specified. We connected to Internet trough 4-wire LL and using FreeBSD as
router since march 1995. We also using two modems configured for 'dumb mode
leased line operations'. Modems in this mode redials and reconnects
automatically. /etc/start_if.sl0 looks like this

slattach -c -h -s 57600 -u /etc/chg_unit.elis /dev/cuaa2

no redial command, no -l options,if modem reconnects slattach not restarts,
but continue working (until 2.1.0-RELEASE). You mean this bad?

In 2.1.0 slattach not aborts if modem reconnects, but any output to this line
disabled. You mean this good?
