Antonino is doing so now.
I think Alan nailed it: with the old tty buffering the extra
logic was required to avoid data loss. The new tty buffering
handles large blocks of data with no problem.
When I hit the problem originally I was using an FTDI device. I've
tested it on multiple 3 linux machine machine: Ubuntu Dapper (kernel
2.6.15), Fedora Core 2 (dunno what kernel but surely older that
2.6.15) and Debian Etch (with 2.6.20 and 2.6.21) and all of then gave
me corrupted data (while windows gave correct data). So all these
kernel have this (or a related) problem.
