Not too easy to do.  You could try a ribbon cable, and if it gets significantly
worse, then you could suspect the cable.  It is more probably due to a
combination of everything you mentioned.  BTW: I've never seen a terminal that
worked perfectly at 38.4kbaud.  At least not so far.  Maybe the newer ones
will.
