Have you had a look at contrib/serial.fs in the gforth distribution?

http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/cvsweb/cgi-bin/cvsweb/gforth/contrib/serial.fs?rev=1.2;content-type=text%2Fplain

while this may not be the same API as you're using, porting your code
over to using it will reduce some of the headaches that come with
providing your own serial port code?

cheers,

David
