Alas, it did not work for me.  'softcar' by itself didn't do the
trick.  I didn't have a lot of time to try things (got home late), so
I'll try a few other things.

BTW, my serial mouse is on com1 and it works fine.

Does anyone else have one of these brain-dead Digicom Softmodems?  If
so, are you seeing what I'm seeing?

My thanks to Mark Weaver for the patch.  Now, at least, I can build
kernels with a known-working driver while I try to figure out the
problem.
