The 135 using a dual rs232 (9pin) adapter configured as sp1,sp2 (primary,
secondary) has a similar problem (I don't think it's baud rate). The getty
will completely forget about the terminal if the terminal is power cycled.
Killing the getty works as init forks a new one, and I get the login prompt
(which is effectively what you do by disable/re-enableing the terminal.)`N[

I intend to putz with the devices configuration some today. I'll post the
results.
