[Mono-dev] Make System.IO.Ports work on UNIX systems other than Linux

[Miguel de Icaza]

Hello,

The attached diff makes SerialPort.GetPortNames() work on

I am not sure why you swap lnx with rem and remove items from the list on a
second pass.

Perhaps you can explain the rationale and the naming of the devices on each
of the systems that you tested this on?

I would also rather not use regexps there.

Miguel.
