Yes, I am using the newlib com functions.  com2 to be exact. 
Following through the code I now realized that I was already using the
"polled" functions and not the interrupt.  Putting in some test code,
it seems to get stuck in the "gets()" function (Does not return)

Now would / does the gets() function endlessly wait until it gets a
character or should it return if there is nothing to get.

I would assume that it would return no matter what, and that kind of
leaves a sinking feeling that there may be something wrong with newlib.
