Did you try pkgsrc ? http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/software/packages.html

You can use /dev/tty* but then you won't be able to dial out while mgetty is
waiting for a dial-in. cua* is dty* on NetBSD.
I have this in my /etc/ttys:
tty02 "/usr/pkg/sbin/mgetty" unknown on secure
(I don't care about dial-out so I use tty)
Then setup mgetty.config
In mine I have:
speed 115200
port tty02
init-chat "" AT OK ATZ OK AT&F1 OK ATM0 OK
