Faster Serial Ports... How can I?

[Karl Lehenbauer]

The 16-byte FIFO on the National NS16550AN pin-compatible (right?) replacement 
for the 8250 and 16450 UARTs looks like just what the doctor ordered to 
improve the performance of serial communications under Microport and elsewhere.

Has anyone tried to enable the FIFO under Microport and/or would someone
at Microport try this, make the driver changes if necessary and post the new
driver to the BBS?  That would be great.  -karl
