Worse in what sense?  Dropped chars?  Generally not working?  I hacked it
quite a bit for 4.4 since I had an unbuffered serial port on my machine at
home.  I can receive at 19.2k baud without dropping chars.  It is possible
I could have broken something for buffered port (ala the 345/375/4xx).

CSRG uses the dcm quite heavily (for their SLIP lines) on their 4.4 machines
so I wouldn't expect any major problems.
