Is there any sort of comm facility in the standard distribution that 
would allow one through ssh to access the serial port?
It appears that microcom, a busybox tool, isn't rolled into the 
standard distribution, I assume to save space.

Any other choice?

What about screen
In included in Astlinux. On my Mac I use screen /dev/tty.usbserial 
19200 to access serial devices. Try screen -? for options.
