	That's great news for the x86 people but what about the SPARC,
	m68k, MIPS, Vax, NS32k and others that have no com.c in their
	architecture?

	As a religeous note: I see having to use 2 seperate devices as
	an icky kludge. It isn't necessary if the serial port driver
	is written correctly. I used dialin/dialout with one serial device on
	Amiga UNIX SVR4 for 4 years, with ttymon no less, and it all just
	worked. I see no reason why the general serial port code couldn't
	do what other OS's have been doing for years.
