the pipe is just to pass the file desc. that diald already has for
/dev/ttyS0 across to chat/pppd[1]. It saves /var/lock/ races. (ie
diald holds the lock for the duration that ttyS0 is in use,
irregardless of whether it's actually chat/pppd that is using it.)
but your problem is solely with chat i think, not diald.
