Package: cu
Version: 1.07-17
Severity: normal

        'cu' forces hardware flow control when invoked against a
tty/serial device directly:

        cu -l /dev/usb/ttyUSB0

        The tty is unconditionally set to hardware flow control, even
when previously disabled by 'stty' (stty -F /dev/usb/ttyUSB0 -crtscts).
This is due to the following line in cu.c (at or near line #602):

              sport.uuconf_u.uuconf_sdirect.uuconf_fhardflow = TRUE;

        A patch to add new command line flags to manipulate this setting
was posted to the NetBSD lists some time ago.  Perhaps it could be
incorporated:
