Rather than relying on "uugetty", which not all systems have, one could
probably better set Pcomm up to handle all possible cases, including
both "uugetty" and all the known "this device is being used for dial-in"
error codes.  (Handling "uugetty", of course, requires no extra effort,
since *any* program doing dial-out has to check for a LCK.. file
*anyway*.)
