According to the ROM Kernel Manual, I can get even parity by setting
the SERF_PARTY_ON flag and by not setting the SERF_PARTY_ODD flag.
This doesn't seem to work. I even tried changing the number of data bits
just in case the parity affected it and it didn't work. I had the same
problem when doing serial IO from Amigabasic. Is there something wrong
with the parity routines ?

Is there something wrong >with the parity routines ? uh, well, yes. This is a "known" bug, recently discovered. It'll be fixed in the next release. Sorry about that. Read should be ok, write has the problem.
