Hi Bjorn,
Did as you asked; No joy. See following;
[graeme@flintstone ~]$ sudo /sbin/modprobe agrmodem
[graeme@flintstone ~]$ sudo /sbin/modprobe agrserial
[graeme@flintstone ~]$ sudo wvdial
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
Segmentation fault
[graeme@flintstone ~]$
The following is from dmesg;
agrmodem: module license 'Proprietary' taints kernel.
