I did use strace -f.  These are the steps I took.  I keep my inittab the
same (left ttymxc0::respawn:/sbin/getty -n -L ttymxc0 115200 vt100 -n -l
/bin/sh # GENERIC_SERIAL) so I could login without login prompt.  Then I
executed this strace command:

	strace -o strace.out -f /bin/login

Then I copied the contents of strace.out to the mailing list.  I actually
had to force a reboot of the system because the strace never terminated
because it was hung up somewhere and kept printing out this over and over
in the strace.out file:

	1292  ioctl(0, SNDCTL_TMR_CONTINUE or TCSETSF, {B115200 opost isig icanon
	echo ...}) = ? ERESTARTSYS (To be restarted)
	1292  --- SIGTTOU (Stopped (tty output)) @ 0 (0) ---
	1292  --- SIGTTOU (Stopped (tty output)) @ 0 (0) ---

Are the steps I took not sufficient? Or does the -o option interfere
somehow?
