Well, on Windows there are used calls to Windows' kernel (as you can see in
mcs/class/System/System.IO.Ports/WinSerialStream.cs), they in turn are using
calls to port drivers or so.

However, setting baud rate to nonstandard value can be quite problematic on
*nix systems in general and sometimes this is hardware related. For example
see:
