Yes -- the same patched one that provides the -E option for disabling
the escape character (and other character processing).  It's invoked
as:

	cu -E ^@ -l serial -s 38400

"serial" is a symlink to cuaa1 (which is the internal COM 2 port on
this box).

The dialin modem is a COM 3 internal V.FC modem.  It's on ttyd2.
