Ah, but the problem is that I get these while the whole connection is
chugging along at a "brisk" 4-5kb/sec (3 channel GSM download and
compression) , which doesnt suggest timeouts happening much at all?
How can I verify this to be the fact or not? Or is it timing out on
induvidual frames of data?

As for interrupts, I dnot have any conflicts I know of, irda is
registered on irq3:

lapper:~$ cat /proc/interrupts | grep irda
  3:     627634          XT-PIC  irda0
lapper:~$ 

and serial is compiled as a module, and in /etc/rc.serial I have this:

setserial /dev/ttyS2 uart none irq 0
