Ok so crtscts is set, but you have clocal set too. That shouldn't matter

clocal set as well is unusual but if I remember the spec right then
clocal would not interfere with rts/cts handshake and certainly not with
xon/xoff
Looks correct, two boards so its unlikely both didnt wire it.

Those look different on the whole - there are two reasons you'll get an
input overrun with a 16x50 UART. The first is because we ran out of
buffers to empty the chip, in which case we would have asserted flow
control in software. The second is if we cannot keep up and fail to empty
the on chip FIFO within the required time (about 1mS)
As the flow control is driven by software on most 16x50 chips (there are
a couple of exceptions) if we fail to empty the fifo fast enough then any
flow control will be asserted too late to save the day.
If you stop the application and do the following
cat /dev/ttywhatever
^Z
[stopped]
(so you are asking the OS to buffer data but not ever reading it)
and then fire data at it does the flow control eventually occur ?
