If this is the case, why does my SE/30 reboot properly with the 1.4mb
GENERIC-SBC kernel from the 1.3 distribution, but hang at the very end of
the reboot process with my 900k adb direct kernel?  Recompiling to disable
adb direct results in proper reboot.

Under 1.2.1 I ran the serial port at 38400 without any _known_ problem,
but then again I don't think the previous serial driver reported fifo
overruns, only ring buffer problems.
