You probably need to set the 'CREAD' bit in the termios 'l_flag' structure
(I think that's the one.  From memory...).

I started woring on some UNIX serial I/O pages a long while ago, but haven't
quite finished them up... no free time! :(  Anyways, the current pages can
be accessed by your favorite web browser at http://www.easysw.com/~mike/serial.
