Whatever is in the current /etc/ttys and /dev/MAKEDEV.  Currently ttyd*.

The correct setting is system dependent.  That's why everything in rc.serial
is commented out by default.  The setting of dtrwait is safe enough but
the setting of crtscts may cause problems if the modem doesn't assert CTS
except when there is carrier.
