OK, thanks. FWIW here is the serial board we are using:
http://www.moschip.com/html/MCS9845.html
The hardware guy says "The mn9845cv, have in default 2 serial ports and
one ISA bus, where we have connected the tl16c554, quad serial port."
Hopefully Ingo's latency tracer can tell me what is holding off
interrupts.
I beg your pardon: I'm not used that much to interrupts handling in Linux, but this piece of code from sound/drivers/serial-u16550.c in a linux-2.6.16:
OK, they are not using serial-u16550 but 8250_fourport for some reason:
Doesn't look like it. fourport cards have their ports at 0x1a0..0x1bf
and 0x2a0..0x2bf, and have some special and non-standard features.

It looks like no overruns are reported, but I have to find out whether
they have reproduced the bug since the last reboot.
