No, I have no such modem to try.

It does support Aladdin eToken Pro 4.2B and later SmartCard Tokens
(which was my big issue) and seem to inter-operate properly with power
management features like deep sleep states and such. Lower power drain. 

The new stack in simply batter organized and cleaner as well as being
designed with knowledge of many of the problems with the old stack. Lots
of timing issues and the like that plagued the old stack have vanished,
although I'm sure it introduces a few new issues.
