Yes, serial port probing messing up a port's settings isn't anything brltty can 
do much about. Waiting for udev to settle, though, is, in my opinion, the right 
way to deal with it.

Maybe there's a way to tell udev (or maybe it's the kernel) not to probe for 
modems. That probe is a bit annoying, especially when, these days, few people 
actually have them.

Fixing that isn't even, strictly speaking, necessary since, again, waiting for 
udev to settle resolves it and is the right thing to do. Nevertheless, I do 
still intend to fix it because it indeed is something brltty can (and, 
therefore, should) deal with.
