I've fixed this now: the problem was that I'd got COM3=IRQ5 and
COM4=IRQ2 on the hardware, ttyS2=IRQ9 and ttyS3=IRQ5 in the software.
Once I'd changed those two lines to 

    /bin/setserial /dev/ttyS2 irq 5
    /bin/setserial /dev/ttyS3 irq 9

everything worked fine.  Thanks to Donnie Barnes for pointing this
out (on pilot-unix).  *doh*
