While this does work, it is a workaround. I don't think we should
lose sight of the fact that diald's behavior here is a bug and *NOT*
a configuration issue.
diald has a bug which causes it to erroneously close the modem
file descriptor if it is less than three. When you run diald in non-
daemon mode diald opens (and keeps open) STDIN, STDOUT and
STDERR (file descriptors 0, 1 and 2). The result is that the modem
file descriptor, when it is opened, is greater than 2 and hence not
affected by the bug.
