Is `startmodem' a shell script? If it is then once again, try to
isolate the offending command by running the commands manually. A better
idea might be set +/- x.
If it is not a shell script then strace it. Next steps might be to get
the source and use a debugger. I believe it is less scary then some
people think. Hopefully people here will hold your hand if you are new
to these things.
Maybe this has something with the way you configured PPP?
Maybe someone has a better answer?

It is my suggestion to get it working first. There is a possibility
that it will not happen once the modem will work in a satisfactory
manner.
