My dmesg includes:

    sab0: <Siemens SAB 82532 v3.2> addr 0x1400400000-0x140040007f
                                   irq 43 on ebus0
    sab0: [FAST]
    sabtty0: <ttyz0> on sab0
  * sabtty0: console 9600,8,n,1,-
    sabtty1: <ttyz1> on sab0

which I assume means I'm using the zs driver.  (* - the line which
says "console 9600" only shows up if I boot up without a keyboard).

I noticed uart was commented out in the GENERIC config, so I left it
alone.  Should I un-comment that, and build a new system?  I wanted
to do a rebuild today anyway, to pick up the recent improvements made
to the hme driver.
