The man page adds the (-)rtsdtr option in version 13.1: https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=stty and I can confirm it is an invalid argument in 13.0. I can't confirm that it works in 13.1, though, only that it is first documented there. You should be able to test it with any old desktop computer pretty easily though. Documented things tend to work. Have you thought of the alternative solution of cutting some wires in the serial cable? Does your device even need those signals? Would it work at a lower data rate? This does remind me of a question I have had myself - which is how does one tell from the bugzilla or review what version a commit refers to? Bugzilla has a Version descriptor, but presumably that refers to the version where the bug is found, not where it is corrected. The word "version" does not appear on the typical Review page.
