>Description:
u3g(4) assumes a consecutive numbering of USB interfaces for serial ports
which causes some ports to not be available when this is not the case like
the following (/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices output from Linux):

Replace calls to usbd_device2interface_handle in u3g_match() and
u3g_attach() with the interface already passed in uiaa->uiaa_iface and
store the interface in sc->sc_iface for later use by u3g_open()/
Also skip Direct IP interfaces in u3g_match() to avoid potential side effects.
>How-To-Repeat:
Connect a Sierra Wireless MC7710 set to
AT!UDPID=68a3
AT!UDUSBCOMP=5
AT!CUSTOM="GPSENABLE",0
to a USB port and check dmesg(1) output:

For performance reasons it may be advisable to use the cdce(4) interface
instead of pppd(8) at HSDPA and LTE speeds if the device/firmware supports
AT!UDUSBCOMP=5 (please check with AT!UDUSBCOMP=? first). These interfaces
can be managed using the vendor-specific AT!SCACT,... AT commands like
Direct IP interfaces.
