I'm caught in this regression too, still broken in 2.6.31.5. I believe
the hardware I'm using won't work without DTR/RTS turned on. So I
suspect they aren't turned on by default anymore.

I tried using picocom to force them on and I still couldn't get my
hardware to respond. Chip is a FT232RL.

I'm still poking around trying to figure out how to make it work again.
