I used your modm0dev (great, thanks for it!) for porting term 1.08
to Mint+MintNet (is at a.a), because select() does not work on modem1.
My Atari is an 16 Mhz one (Mega St + HBS 240) and I have the same problem,
ie loosing characters at 19200, though not very often, only at
havy loaded X-Sessions over a zero-modem and when tuploading long files.

16 Mhz should really be fast enough for 19200, but may be Mint's task
switching prevents correct handling of *all* interrupts.

Solutions welcome,
