Yeah, I have something like this also ("stty -icanon -echo -icrnl" might
do it?). I'm not quite sure if its proper, but I think a program like pppd
that expects a certain state would probably set raw mode in any case..

It could be the fault of our cu - last year NetBSD switched from Taylor
UUCP cu to the BSD one that is included with tip, probably some
differences..

Yeah I read that in the manpage, but closing the slave device doesn't make
anything happen on the master on NetBSD, maybe thats a difference..

Well, there are lots of ownership issues with bluetooth that are yet
unaddressed - I think that deep down, baseband connections should be owned
by the user who creates them, but I'm not thinking about that because its
going to be difficult.
