I don't use minicom, so I don't know.  It does sound specific to
that program, however.

The permissions and ownership changing are probably induced by devfs
or devfs.conf, but this is speculation on my part.

Also, please do not remove the mailing list from your responses;
it's good to provide details to everyone on the list so that others
know where the problem is, and future mailing list searches can
reveal clues.  :-)  Thanks.
