Don't say that the filtering options are only available under NetBSD, and
don't claim that _any_ serial speed is settable, mention that it has to be supported by the device driver. Some have very flexible baud rate selection (ie: based on divisors etc, such as the com ports), while others have explicit baud rate choices.
