I have added a patch to do that.

That had me puzzled for a while as well. Turns out to be a simple

I added a NOSSL PKG_OPTION.

If you build conserver without SSL support, the console command it no

You mean setting 'options crtscts;' for the port in conserver.cf does  
not turn on the physical RTS line?  Is this behaviour new in version
