I see the same issue with "device uart" using a US Robotics Speedster 
28800 PCMCIA with 6.2-RELEASE. uart attaches, but I see the same 
symptoms as you.

Rebuilding the kernel with sio, puc, and pccard statically compiled 
results in the PCMCIA modem being detected as per onboard serial ports 
would be (this Thinkpad T43 only has an IR port), and the modem works OK.
