Upon run it reports WARNING: could not read from /dev/random.
Under OpenBSD, /dev/random is reserved for hardware RNG's. Use
/dev/arandom (or /dev/urandom) instead.
Yes, I consider switching to /dev/urandom on all archs.

There is confusion over whether the config file is /etc/ser.cfg or
/etc/ser/ser.cfg. The ser man page erroneously says the -f default is
./ser.cfg instead of /etc/...
The default config file is /usr/local/etc/ser/ser.cfg on solaris, *bsd
or linux (if you build it by hand). If you use a linux package (deb or
rpm) the config is in /etc/ser/ser.cfg and ser is installed directly in
/usr.
man page errors:
Under FILES:
it lists /etc/ser/ser.cfg instead of /etc/ser.cfg -which is correct?
Also, /usr/sbin/ser should be /usr/local/sbin/ser
Also, /usr/lib/ser/modules/* is really /usr/local/lib/ser/modules/*
Well this is because the path is different depending on how you install
it. Since most people use pre-packaged versions, or compile the package
themselves this works for them.
Some on-man-page install sed script would be needed to fix this.
