If you are loading mwavedd, you are loading an older version of
mwavem. The current port creates 'mwave.ko'.

This is certainly true! Don't know how I missed it. It looks like
everything loaded correctly if it not only sees sio1, but sees it as a
16550A. That means that the driver is actually communicating with the
pseudo-device. 

The next question is whether the mwavem process is getting started.

FWIW, I just tried this with 4.6-stable as of the day after 4.6.2 was
released. I disabled loading mwave.ko at boot time and let the startup
script do the job. I now see EXACTLY what Dave Walton saw, but my
modem works fine.

This is NOT assurance that it is the same, but it would be very
close. At least I know my 600E is still working OK.
