Please do.  I spent about four hours last night doing all sorts of ungodly
things to it to figure out what it was trying to do and finally make it work
--- and even so there are holes (I had to install a "pr" fontend because lpd
insists on sending -w0 to pr if I lpr -p something; yes, pw#80 is in my
printcap).  I was seriously p*ssed afterward, especially since I found out
the night before that I have to do the same thing with (uu)getty because
dial-in/dial-out isn't covered in the most recent FAQ on tsx-11... (and I
thought these oh-so-special dual-device serial drivers were going to *fix*
this problem, silly me...)
