Microsoft's overlapped I/O for serial ports is fully implemented, though
it's just different enough to drive you crazy.  I've had times when serial
I/O code (straight Win32 API stuff) would work perfectly under NT/2000, but
would fail under Win9x because some parameters were considered invalid.  I
wish I could remember the details.
