I meant that I force crtscts from /etc/rc.serial on the cuaaX 
where my modem is located:

#!/bin/sh
# $Id: rc.serial,v 1.4.4.3 1996/07/02 14:39:34 bde Exp $

[...]

#Added by Victor Sudakov

modem38400() {
	for i in $*
	do
		# may depend on modem
		comcontrol /dev/ttyd$i dtrwait 100 drainwait 180
		# Lock crtscts on.
		# Speed reasonable for V42bis.
		stty </dev/ttyid$i crtscts 38400
		stty </dev/ttyld$i crtscts
		stty </dev/cuaia$i crtscts 38400
		stty </dev/cuala$i crtscts
	done
}

Perhaps it is not necessary to do what I do, but it works and I am happy.
