0 does work.  Strangely though, looking at the code, as long as
dev isn't cn_tab->cn_dev, cnopen ignores the parameter and uses
cn_tab->cn_dev anyway.

uio_resid==0 doesn't seem to work, but 1 does.

For my purpose, the tty needs to put in "raw" mode, so I
copied some code from tip.c:

		cnioctl(dev, TIOCGETA, (caddr_t)&term, 0, curproc);
		term.c_lflag &= ~(ICANON|IEXTEN|ECHO);
		term.c_iflag &= ~(INPCK|ICRNL);
		term.c_oflag &= ~OPOST;
		term.c_cc[VINTR] = term.c_cc[VQUIT] = term.c_cc[VSUSP] =
			term.c_cc[VDSUSP] = term.c_cc[VDISCARD] = 
			term.c_cc[VLNEXT] = _POSIX_VDISABLE;
		cnioctl(dev, TIOCSETA, (caddr_t)&term, 0, curproc);

I also had to put the tty back into "cooked" mode before
calling cngetsn.

Now polling for character works.

Thanks a lot for your help!
