: COM3 & COM4 are configured in BIOS to use irq 10 and 11 respectively. 

Chances are you don't have things configured quite correctly in the
bios.  The interrupts aren't asserting proplerly.

: Surprisingly, but it seems that both COM3 & COM4 ports work ok
: (getty works, there is no "silo overflow" errors).

That's likely because you are using 9600 baud.  sio installs a timeout
to harvest characters, and that's what saves you.

: So, should I worry about this error?

Likely.
