[Nut-upsuser] bcmxcp - Powerware 9125

[Gorm J. Siiger]

I'm currently testing the bcmxcp driver for NUT, and it causes me some
trouble. And when scanning the archives it seems like the 3110 USB problem
reported recently.

The bcmxcp daemon stops running, and the logs shows the following:

Any idea why this happens, the serial port is running just fine. An APC has
been connected for at litte over a year now on that port. ?
