Perhaps there's some history here. I installed Debian 1.3 on a 1997
pentium and setserial -a /dev/ttyS? all say that baud_base is 115200
and Flags: spd_normal...
Both mgetty and minicom will satisfactorily handle 115200, so all this
messing with spd_vhi seems to be a thing of the past. Presumably, by now,
any software that can't ask for >38400 should have a bug report filed
against it.
