Yes. I was using SMC2 on the TDM when I made the update. You
can enable up to four (because of baud rate generators) serial
ports for uarts. Pick any that you want. This will be more
configurable in newer versions of the config scripts I am going
to check into CVS one of these days.

Make sure you have the device nodes in /dev properly defined.
They should be:
ttyS0 4,64
ttyS1 4,65
ttyS2 4,66
ttyS3 4,67
