Peg Bailey in Customer Service gave me the answer I needed.  The HPSM is
much more picky about control lines than most RS-232 implementations I've
seen.  Once DSR and DCD were asserted, I was able to open the port and I
was able to do ioctl's once CTS was asserted.  Apparently, Masscomp still 
doesn't have a formal description of the HPSM for customers to use, so this 
problem pops up on the hotline all the time.

By the way, is there a list of special interest groups around?  The MUS
application asks what groups one might be interested in, but doesn't list 
which groups exist.  Our group does ship-based applications, so I have an
interest in groups covering graphics, data acquisition, etc.  Also, I'd
be interested in comparing notes on field operations (packing, power line
conditioning, salt spray, ship motion, etc).
