Doh!

Then the best thing to do is initialize it in both places, isn't it?
I just put the tp->t_dev = dev; fragment back into the first open area of
zsopen, and left the setting of it in the attach routine. If more thought
is needed, let me know.

I thought one of the reasons for dial-out lines was so that you could have
a getty waiting on a ttyXX hooked to a modem, and if no one's there, you
could fire up the cuaXX and send a fax out to someone.

Since we have only one struct tty per port, as I understand it, the getty
would now magically appear to be accessing cuaXX, rather than ttyXX. ?? Do
we just accept this perculiarity?

Take care,
