Apparently this problem is known to IBM, and considered important,
but there is no fix yet.  The problem also probably applies to psp
ports (the ones on the motherboard of the 6150).  My guess, from looking
at the code, is that you won't see the bug very often if you only use a
single port of each type (asy or psp).

If I can't resist, I might take a crack at it myself; if I do I'll
let you all know.  In the meantime, keep running those september
kernels on your RTs with serial port usage!
