Thanks for all the help.  The consensus seems to be: it should work,
but you really should be using +/- 12v.  Well, this is very temporary
and very hardware specific, so I think I'll stick with it for now.
The port I'm trying to drive seems to accept stuff well under the 232
spec.  A MAX232 I'd have to order, while 1488s I can get a Radio Scrap.
