This is to be fixed. If anyone is interested in it I'm all open for fixing
this. But as I personally don't use vc6, I can't do it.

Thanks for pointing this out. Does incrementing seq number really causes
any problems? Or is this only observation from NDS -- it doesn't
nesseserily need to be wrong. But if it causes any problems it is indeed a
bug.

This is also a goal for gnokii. In fact what you wrote is a subset of
gnokii goals.

If gnokii windows serial port support has design flaws it has to be fixed.
This is NOT the reason for starting a new project.
