Problem with COM1 port from with GDB 5.3 under Cygwin 1.5.3-1

[Thomas Doerfler]

Hello,

I have read your posting to the gdb mailing list. Some days 
now I have a similar problem with a M68K-GDB5.2 working with 
the serial remote protocol under cygwin 1.5.3.

My gdb complains, that COM1 is "not a typewriter", and it will 
open the alternative deivces "/dev/ttyS0" only in vary rare 
occasions.

I will try to downgrade my cygwin installation and try 
again...
wkr,
	Thomas.
