Something's broken in how cu handles the serial ports w/ NetBSD. You
need to get it to set clocal, then it will work. The problem is that it
tries to do non-blocking I/O, but with the port set to wait for DTR before
transmitting. When it gets a "try again" error, it freaks out.

I gave up on cu. Try tip instead. Or just get one of the ppp packages. :-)

Take care,
