+ * July 6, 1998. Fixes and comments by Valentijn Sessink
+ *                                     <vsessink@ic.uva.nl> [V]
+ *  I only quick-fixed an error for the output buffers. The thing is this: if a
+ * WinApp starts using serial ports, it calls OpenComm, asking it to open two
+ * buffers, cbInQueue and cbOutQueue size, to hold data to/from the serial
+ * ports. Wine OpenComm only returns "OK". Now the kernel buffer size for
+ * serial communication is only 4096 bytes large. Error: (App asks for
+ * a 104,000 bytes size buffer, Wine returns "OK", App asks "How many char's
+ * are in the buffer", Wine returns "4000" and App thinks "OK, another
+ * 100,000 chars left, good!")
+ * The solution below is a bad but working quickfix for the transmit buffer:
+ * the cbInQueue is saved in a variable; when the program asks how many chars
+ * there are in the buffer, GetCommError returns # in buffer PLUS
+ * the additional (cbOutQeueu - 4096), which leaves the application thinking
+ * "wow, almost full".
+ * Sorry for the rather chatty explanation - but I think comm.c needs to be
+ * redefined with real working buffers make it work; maybe these comments are
+ * of help.
