This is obsessive behaviour, you _do_ realize that?

Have you sat down and realized that another computer sending at
57.6K is not any different than a 56k modem connected to the
same port?  The UART doesn't know and doesn't care what is sending
the signals.  In fact, the 56k _modem_ will never do more than 53k
so the modem is putting _less_ stress on the UART than the null
cable was during my testing using GSZ.
