Look closely to modem log. The error message is actually _Perl_ _warning_. 
When running the same thing from vm shell, I get lots of warnings to stderr, 
but all works. The same (_S_A_M_E_) .rmd file is played by vgetty just fine.

No. it does _NOT_ fail.

Modem is Rockwell-based Inpro IDC 2814BXL/VR, the best thing that can be done 
on Rockwell chipset.

Everything works just nice, but all perl scripts using Modem::Vgetty gives THE 
SAME warnings to stderr, and every perl script running from vgetty fails with 
THE SAME errors.
