Oh, I misunderstood earlier.

Normally, you switch off getty (by setting the line to offline in /etc/ttys
and kill -HUP 1), and use some terminal program to program the modem and save
the configuration.

If you want to do per-session initialization, yes, you would have to get and
compile and run mgetty; getty doesn't provide for this.
