Thanks both to you and to Juergen Braukmann for your responses.

Though the boot process seems to ignore whatever edits I place in
/sbin/init.d/serial, I was more successful editing /sbin/init.d/boot.local
and getting the desired response.

Though oddly enough, editing boot.local with the line:  /sbin/setserial
/dev/ttyS2 irq 9 port 0x3e8   has the unexpected side effect of returning
permissions for /dev/ttyS2 to their default values at boot. So that I also
had to include a second line in the boot.local for a /bin/chmod  command 
in order to restore the particular permissions to /dev/ttyS2 that I
required.

Anyhow, problem solved.

Thanks again.
