I have an alias instead of uutry and tail -f on another screen.

It isn't solution, I want to parse incoming stuff in the middle

Original question was: does uucico/uuxqt belongs to /usr/sbin?
Even from your answer it does.
Moreover, original uucp (not modified for FBSD) install itself
into /usr/sbin, it is an argument too.

I'll fix all makefiles after repository move.
