Hmm... if you're always xmode'd at the same baud rate on that port, I'd go
ahead and "iniz" it on startup, so that the driver's init/term routines don't
get called each time you use it.   Not positive, but I think that helps prevent
serial probs on the ST.   Dunno about now, but the ST version used to use a lot
of the ST BIOS ROM routines.

Is this during same boot?  Or after the machine was off for a while?   Or? ST's
tend to have heat problems too.  This a Mega or old-style ST?  On the oldstyle,
I took off the internal RF shield to let the heat get out better. Worked
wonders on preventing flakiness.
