There's a 2 second sleep in getty before opening the tty that has been
there since before NetBSD and I am planning to get rid of it. The comment
above it says:
* Delay the open so DTR stays down long enough
* to be detected.
A bunch of our uart drivers already have a similar workaround in their
chardev close functions so it should not be necessary in most cases.
Question is -- is anybody relying on this behaviour anymore? If so I can
help fix your serial driver.

Take care,
