	DNet V2 makes use of a feature that was buggy in the 1.2 serial.device
and was fixed in the 1.3 serial.device .. Specifically, DNet V2 will post
multiple CMD_WRITE's to the serial.device.

	You must have the 1.3 serial.device due to a bug in the 1.2 
serial.device that caused requests to be lost (and therefore never returned)
and thus froze DNet.
