Do you know an old sio driver is hardly usable?

There are many silo overflows, working with a terminal device is a
nightmare. There was a report about one crash with a message about a
spinlock holed more than 5 seconds (there is no core dump because it has
not repeated).

After a discussion in a Russian FIDO group I've change it on uart and
the problems gone.

I think a default driver should be changed from sio to uart until it
will be fixed.

Had those overflows many times when I used FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE,
6.1-STABLE and a modem.
But this never had a so bad influence forcing me into using uart.
I had serious problems with sio on Intel STL2 motherboard and recent stable. Massive silo overflows (modem was almost unusable) and at least 1 sio-related panic (spinlock held for more than 5 sec). Now I changed sio to uart ant it works like a charm. All problems gone.
