I am working on trying to get two com ports working on my install
of NetBSD 0.9.  The symptom I'm getting is that occasionally, 
the system will panic: setrq (in the kernel swapper locore.s) 
Other than that, it seems to work well.  
The only patch that I've added is the silo overflow patch.
If there's an existing patch to cover this, I'd be open to it, but
I'm skeptical.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be open to them.  Meanwhile,
I'll continue to hack the kernel.
