I'm slowly ftping NetBSD0.9 over to my machine for an
impending upgrade, but I just read an article that makes
me wonder if I should.  The only serial ports that I've
got are on an 8 port serial card (hostess 8).  Does
NetBSD support multiport serial cards?  I'd really
like to use my mouse, modem and vt100.  And while  we're
on the topic, has anyone ported sio.c to NetBSD?  It's
a BIG improvement over com.c
