i couldn't find that latter file, but i attached an strace to gsmmuxd and
i have the debug file.
however, i am annoyed to report that the test call rang through. that is,
everything is as mickey lauer recently suggested it would be:

that is in fact exactly what happened. since my link was idle, i saw the
new call request coming through the modem in the trace (i have blanked
out part of the calling number for privacy reasons):
1397 09:08:05.057420 read(5, "~\5\357\r\n%CPI:
1,0,1,0,1,0,\"07971226XXX\",129\r\n\337~", 2048) = 44
1397 09:08:05.061490 write(6, "\r\n%CPI: 1,0,1,0,1,0,\"07971226XXX\",129\r\n",
39) = 39
[...]
1397 09:08:05.867654 read(5, "~\1\377\343\5\7M\266~~\5\357\r\nRING\r\n\337~",
2048) = 22
and my openmoko rang. once i'd answered the call and hung up, pppd seemed
to autoresume without complaint (pings went through within seconds of
hanging up).
i quite understand that there will be no good or reliable way to detect an
incoming call when the modem is flooded with data; all i wanted was to be
able to keep the pppd line up for (eg) tango map download-on-demand and
periodic checking of email, without having "blackout windows" hours long
when i can't be contacted. i can now do that.
so, thank you, timo, for your help, and mickey, thanks for the
clarification. i can confirm that my phone does all that can be expected
of it in the context of a GSM network! timo, would you still like a copy
of my trace file for reference (it's about 130k)?
