to return ECHILD, which causes the while loop to run forever.

current unit number, and the "new" unit number of -1. This allows the
script to actually deconfigure the SLIP interface (e.g. by running
"ifconfig delete") which has been impossible previously.
This is most likely a candidate for 2.1, too.
slattach always exited early because fd is not open in acquire_line().
Other (trivial) changes that I've been neglecting for some time:
- Turn off O_NONBLOCK so that `chat' doesn't need to worry about it
(`chat' actually does worry about it).
- Really set speeds POSIXly :-). cfsetspeed() isn't POSIX.
- Fix spelling error in comment.
- Gripe about bad programming of doing everything from signal handlers.
slattach should be written to do everything from the sigsuspend() loop,
but I don't want to do it :-).
From me:
Use .PATH to find uucplock.c

-K #: set SLIP keepalive timeout
-O #: set SLIP outfil timeout
-U #: set SLIP unit number
sighup handler now sets tty disc for non-redial case too.
Implement SIGURG handling (from keepalive).
POSIXing speed settings.
-K: set keepalive SLIP timeout
-O: set outfill SLIP timeout
Handle SIGURG from keepalive like SIGHUP now, i.e. reconnect.
Back out background scription change, cause some synchro problems.
Now works with dialin devices too.
Add new option in slattach style -l: dont use modem control.
Add new option -W: specify max number of dial tries for one phone.
Remove -p option, this ugly hack not needed.
Fix script timeout expires.
Some code cleanups.
Add -t to specify login script timeout.
Add -w to specify retry wait time.
Describe -p option.
Now understand several -s sections (for several host phone numbers).
Remove -F sw (software flow control), it is impossible with slip.
Change -F hw (hardware flow control) option to -h as in slattach,
we don't need option with argument for only one case.
Call downscript on SIGTERM.
Improve debug diagnostic.
Allow startslip work with several slip lines without killing each other.
Unlink pid file on exit.
Skip \r and \0 in login script parsing instead making them \n.
Use absolute path to default script (/sbin/ifconfig).
Call up/down script in background to prevent hang on them.
understand why it can become a null pointer under some circumstances,
but i've got a pile of tapes where this happens, and running it thru a
debugger proved that simply ending the loop in this case did the right
thing.
Anyway, it cannot make it worse than now, where restore kills itself
with "Memory fault".
/dev/rfoo0d.
Scan a list of devices instead of insisting on all the world
being wd0.
Allow for disk names to be specified (e.g. `sd0') instead of full
path names only.
Sync the man page with the reality.
from not coming up multiuser just because you have a CD mount in fstab
but no CD in the drive.
