Thanks looking at this. I've been using this patch ever since
I first reported the problem so I think think it works.

As and aside, I'm amused by this concept:

"they simply use HyperTerm within a virtual machine as a substitute"

My first solution was just to write my own xmodem down loader - maybe
a couple hours - I used that for a couple of years, but was annoyed that
sx/minicom didn't work so I eventually tracked down the problem.

I think I actually did use HyperTerm with wine just to see if it worked 
- it did.
