Bad. I must say I hadn't been able to test that part very much, so this
is not good news; it may mean that the .pkg file generation is broken.

Hrm. I said that the machine was set to 115200, but that was based on
the observation from one particular machine -- certainly not on
documentation or something. It might be that this is not standard
behaviour.
You could try using other baud rates; if you get junk, that usually does
point to incorrect baud rate.
