Okay, I now have in /etc/rc.conf.local:

        nmeaattach_flags="-s 4800 cuaU0"
        ntpd_flags=""

As I understand, this GPS device is not programmable, so I can't
enable a PPS signal.  Upon reboot, I see the following message
displayed during initialization:

starting initial daemons: nmeaattachnmeaattach: open: /dev/cuaU0:
Device not configured

I'm seeing nothing:

$ fstat /dev/cuaU0
USER     CMD          PID   FD MOUNT        INUM MODE       R/W    DV|SZ NAME
$

I should mention this is using the 22 Sep Sparc64 snapshot on a Sun Ultra 10.

Thanks.
