There are patches for both 2.0.27 and 2.1.17. These patches are pretty much the same as Miquel van Smoorenburg's original ones, but have been fixed to work on Alphas too, to use 9600 as a default baud rate, and to recognise a serial line BRK signal even when the controlling tty has ignbrk set. I am using these patches on both intel and alpha boxes to great effect.
Cheers, Stephen.
