When I compile the serial port driver as a module and try to access
/dev/ttyS0, the machine immediately hangs. Really smells like an unhandled
interrupt, it is locked solid.

If I compile serial port support in (no module) the kernel only lasts a
few minutes. Turning on a modem connected to the serial port seems to
trigger the hang.

kernel is 2.1.102 or 2.1.103,
CPU is alpha PC164,
compiler is egcs 1.0.2 (A few minor hackes in asm-alpha/string.h were needed
to get it to compile. The various #if tests seem t miss.)
Config follows.

(I'm not sure who is working on the serial interface stuff, so I don't know
how to send this report directly.)
