The precompiled SLMODEMD.gcc4.2.tar.gz does not work - it produces the
same period length error as the (unpatched) most recent package
of january 2008.
I really need to use the enclosed patch. However wvdial still does not
work. Fax seems to work, Minitel almost works (connexion
established, data sent by remote host is OK, but echo of my keys is
garbled, so I cannot input anything useful, especially as RETURN is
not understood...).
