Does anyone know the circuit names and pinouts for the
proposed EIA PN-1890 standard?  This standard (likely
for final vote this year, I'm told) uses the standard
RS-232-C electrical interface, but with a 8-pin RJ-13
modular connector instead of the good ol' 25-pin D connector.
Also, is there anything "funny" about the modular plug
and jack, or is it the vanilla RJ-13 variety?
