This here Digicom-4 has had 16550A's in it since last February.  Runs
the Trailblazer off our AT.  I haven't tried the Digicom in the 386,
since I could see no reason to make the change.  I've got a total
of 8 serial ports between the two machines (6 on the AT, 2 on the 386),
and they all run with 16550A's.
