I'm not the kernel expert, but the answer is probably 'no'.  However, doing 
any sort of port auto-detection inside plugins/udev.c is a bit nasty.  Best we 
can do is set all of the 2/3/4 ttys and let the plugin probe them.  I 
certainly have doubts we can do this reliably.  If we can't, then we should 
consider Florian's approach as a backup.
