The bug is in libGammu that it does not catch SIGIO even though it did
order it from kernel. Older kernel versions did not make this properly,
so the application did not get the signal, but since 2.6.21 they fixed
this in kernel and applications using libGammu now get this signal.
libGammu 1.11.0 and newer properly handles this.
