Change the creator in your Palm Rez output to something other than 'u328'. 'u328' is
the creator signature for the built-in serial port's 'sdrv' serial driver type, so the
OS thinks you're trying to replace the ROM-based serial driver with this virtual
serial driver, but the calling conventions for 'sdrv' and 'vdrv' are different. That
explains the crashing.
