I have tried to use a host device, /dev/cuau0, in a Windows VM as COM1 but with
no luck. Probably the bug is “It is almost like the CTS pin is permanently
active but the actual device is not really ready for data.” as mentioned by
Anthony Takata in this mail:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-emulation/2014-October/011927.html
. 
I have solved the problem via network as explayned here:
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-emulation/2014-December/012066.html
. 
This approach has a main disadvantage: the VM can not be suspended because when
resumed lost the connection with the host TCP socket.
