Did you create a new uucp account that has a different uid to the
standard NetBSD uucp account?  The original uucp account had a line like

	uucp:*:66:1::0:0:UNIX-to-UNIX Copy:/var/spool/uucppublic:/usr/libexec/uucp/uucico

in /etc/master.passwd.  Others have suggested something like

	ls -ld /var/spool/uucp

I'd also check that the owner of

	ls -ld /usr/libexec/uucp/uucico

matches...
