One more piece of information - when I try to quit NCU, basilisk
freezes and I have to kill it from the shell, and put up with the "You
didn't shut me down properly!" complaints from the mac os. It also
froze when I unchecked the "modem" box in NCU's connection setup and
clicked "OK".
I'm starting to think basilisk really doesn't like using (or maybe just
releasing) ttyS0 for some reason...
