	My problem may be due to other factors, but whenever I try to boot
with a serial console from my PB540c (7.6.1) to my Q900 (NetBSD) using
ZTerm, no output at all is sent to the serial console, and hitting any key
while ZTerm is active (while the terminal window is in the foreground)
hangs ZTerm and I have to force quit.
