I think ARAnyM's emulated serial port can do this, but we no longer have
an Atari SCC driver.
Finn, Michael: as pmaczilog uses platform devices, it can be made to work
on Atari, too?

We lost all serial drivers during the last few years, except for
amiserial (which
we may loose in the future, too, as it does things the serial core people
don't like / consider unsafe).
See e.g.
- 51c9d654c2def97827395a7fbfd0c6f865c26544
("Staging: delete tty drivers")
- 4a6514e6d096716fb7bedf238efaaca877e2a7e8
("tty: move obsolete and broken tty drivers to drivers/staging/tty/)
- bb2a97e9ccd525dd9c3326988e8c676d15d3e12a
("Staging: delete generic_serial drivers")
We only regained pmaczilog for mac.
