There is no bug that I'm aware of.  I wrote my own communication
program that uses the modem port through the firmware.  Recently
I bought a 9600 bps modem and it works great with my program.  I
must admit, without the zipchip gsx installed, data coming in at
19200 does overwhelm the cpu's time and the characters appear on
the screen real slow, but when the modem stops, the display goes
fast.  With the zipchip running, I do keep up with 19200 without
any lag behind.

I guess the question now is which program are you using?  I know
kermit 3.87 works fine though I'm not sure how it uses the port.
