Hello, John.

  sio has special hacks to make it work, and in my experience, it
  worked around FreeBSD 4 (or even 3? I've started with 2.2.2, but it
  was later), when I had some systems with multiple internal ISA
  modems (does anybody remember word "FIDO" here?)

JB> Right, and ISA are edge and active-hi, so generally not shareable.
   As far as I remember, it is changeable. But I could be wrong here.

JB> Can you assign different interrupts via the BIOS somehow?
  I'll try. I could disable uart2 and 3 for sure, and then uart0 and
  uart1 will have unique standard (4 and 3) IRQ. I'll try it tomorrow.
