Ok, the two Sun boxes both have carrier problem errors, but I almost
expected as much.

So, I tried a modified kernel:

        SAB_WRITE(sc, SAB_RFC,
            SAB_RFC_DPS | SAB_RFC_RFDF | SAB_RFC_RFTH_32CHAR);

and wouldn't you know it, it works normally for PPP even.

One *BIT* fixed it.  This must have been broken since the import from
OpenBSD.

I'd appreciate testing to make sure this isn't a fix for a hardware
inconsistency isolated to the Ultra 5/10.  (If any other hardware even
uses sabtty(4).)
