Ok, I was right.  That one didn't work, so I pasted together
some DOS UART code and made a PSerial_dos.cpp file that does
seem to work my antique 486 DOS PC.  I put a zip file with the
DOS nqc.exe, the CWSDPMI.EXE DOS extender, and the source file
PSerial_dos.cpp here:

(...) I probably botched the DOS serial driver, but you could give this build a try. (Requires at least a 386) (URL) had the djgpp version of gcc lying around from a previous DOS project, so I thought I'd give it a shot.
