Actually, the FAQ is out of date.  The 2.0.5 tip doesn't have compiled-
in support for any ACUs now, but instead reads /etc/modems for the
entry named by the `at' capability in /etc/remote; further, generic AT
modem support's built-in as the default, so using `at=generic' should
work most of the time.

Of course, there are some new bugs in tip now that it's using termios
instead of sgtty.  Sigh.
