Per the E-mail, the issue is that I need things like HylaFax and other
commercial software that relies on direct access to the /dev/tty device to
access a modem on a remote Cisco box..

Minicom, CU, all of that is great, but I can't have Hylafax use Minicom to
communicate w/ a remote modem.

I need a driver that appears to be a serial port on the Linux box, that is
connected to a remote modem on the Cisco so that proprietary software can
communicate w/ the modem as if it were locally attached.

What about socat ?

Surely your distro has packages in $repo. You could have this start from and rc script.

socat PTY,link=$HOME/dev/vmodem0,raw,echo=0,waitslave EXEC:'"ssh modemserver.us.org 
socat - /dev/ttyS0,nonblock,raw,echo=0"'

Yours would be even simpler, as the right hand side would be (probably) just a tcp-connect:
