From the docs under "return":
The line feed character is the standard end-of-line delimiter on Unix systems. The end-of-line delimiter for Mac OS systems is a carriage return, and the end-of-line delimiter for Windows systems is a carriage return followed by a line feed. Internally, Revolution always uses a line feed to end lines.
I would guess that your Windows machine is ending each line with CRLF which translates to 2 linefeeds on Solaris.
Try:
put fld "test" into theData
replace numToChar(13) with empty in theData
Then send it and see what happens.

I have had some success in writing lines to a file from a Windows XP machine to a Solaris machine.
Unfortunately, there is an additional blank line after every line I write.
The data in the field "test" on the Windows machine is:
hostname address user
once written to a file on the Solaris machine via serial connection it appears as:
hostname
address
user
Is there a method to not have the additional returns? I
on mouseUp put the fld "test" into theData write theData to file theSerialPort end mouseUp
