On windows - maybe there was problem with external device then - we run
it in debug mode and simply rebol ignored how logical states were put
onto wires. PC did not wait untill device handles incoming data. I don't
remember if we tried rtc/cts or other settings, but simply sending
longer string one char at a time solved situation for us, so we did not
investigate further back at that time ...
