You could just set a flag if the msg comes through a UART interface...
just a thought.


I considered this, of course, but TinyOS 1.x GenericComm throws away
information about which interface was used to receive the packet.
Isn't this problem the reason why TinyOS 2.x switched to separate
Receive interfaces for serial and radio?


Not really. The major reason was that GenericComm would always include the UART stack, whether or not your mote ever sent to the serial port. It's a lot easier to add address-based dispatch to separate layers than it is to remove it.
