The CLOCAL probably doesn't matter, and HUPCL is only supposed to affect
hangups at your end (it causes DTR to be dropped when the line is closed).
This seems to be fixed in -current by setting HUPCL in some cases:
if (!(mode & MODE_DEDICATED))
rstio.c_cflag |= HUPCL;
2.1R is also missing a `modemios = rstio;' statement.
