Yeah..  This is a known problem.  I've not considered it serious enough
to go hunting for, yet.  Someone else is looking into the serial driver
for a couple of improvements, though, and he might take a look at this,
too (hint, hint ;-).

This is by design.  If you want to hardwire a disk at a given scsi ID,
then you can do that easily with a custom kernel configuration.  I tend
to think that the dynamic system works better in the GENERIC case.
Especially in the (currently unsupported on the mac) case where there
are multiple SCSI adapters.
