Has anybody been using kermit out of the packages collection?

I just built it on my NetBSD 1.3.2 unix box.

It runs OK, but the escape key sequence (^\ - c) doesn't
work to get me back to command mode.  I actually have to kill
off the xterm to get out of it once I connect.  The control-\
key sequence has no effect whatsoever.

the rest of the program seems to work fine.  If I telnet to
another computer and then log out, I get backto command mode
OK, or if I set the line to /dev/tty00, then connect, I get
to the modem fine.  I can dial and send modem commands.  But
after I hang up the modem, there's no way to escape back to
command mode.

I tried setting the escape key sequence to something else
with "set escape ^\" and also tried "set escape 28"

Still no dice.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
