Yes on x86 maybe, but a lot of the other serial-port emulations are
still using serial_hds directly, making proper avail_connections tracking
a pain.

Anyways I've audited all frontends now, fixing things where necessary,
and where possible in a generic way.

I'll send a patch for this right after this mail.
