I personally like what the Alpha port does here, /dev/ttyC[0-n] for
com(4).
Perhaps you could add some text to the hp300-specific section of the
release notes noting the major change for the APCI serial ports, and
the name change in general?
Perhaps we should rename the DCM serial ports to /dev/ttyM[0-n]? Do
you have a DCM card? Would you like one? I could probably send you a
DCL card, as well (we don't even have a driver for that one yet :-)
