	Ok, AbortIO() Fails when the request has already completed.  My
question is, when I call AbortIO() and it fails, will it still remove the
request from the reply port? or do I still have to WaitIO() ??????

	Next questions:  If I call the sequence:

	AbortIO();
	WaitIO();

	Will WaitIO() do the right thing when AbortIO() WORKS (e.g. actually
	aborts the IO)

Serial Driver:
	When AbortIO()ing read requests, is it possible to loose characters?
That is, if I abort a read request and it has already read 5 characters, will
io_Actual be 5 (so I can still get at what was read before the abort)?  Or
will it throw the chars away.
