Severity: normal

The SmartLink software modem (sl-modem-daemon) presents it's modem
interface on a pty, but the WvModem class's dependency on TIOCGSERIAL
prevents it's use on ptys such as /dev/pts/0. This renders wvdial
unusable from SmartLink software modems. The patch shown below has
been tested successfully on my laptop.
