+ The pmac_zilog driver for the z85C30 chip on many powermacs
+ historically used the device numbers for /dev/ttySn. The

+ If this option is not selected, the pmac_zilog driver will

+ existing userspace setups to break. Programs that need to
+ access the built-in serial ports on powermacs will need to
+ be reconfigured to use /dev/ttyPZn instead of /dev/ttySn.
