The Pi only (ever) has one UART, so it hasn't come up.

For the benefit of the BeagleBone (it it's UART is quick enough) and
others, they probably ought not to be global, so that devices with odd
timing requirements can be accommodated. Is there a good example
plug-in to copy off for implementing this?

Example configuration file added to. Should the annotation lines start
with # to make them comments?
