First look at /var/log/dmesg and see if it's found there. If it is, should should see some accurate numbers. Also /var/log/messages might have something.
Arrgh, I thought I looked in the output of dmesg before (I must have grep'ed for ttyS1 and not seen anything). But saving the output of dmesg to a file, and looking at it line by line, I found that the ports are there, but not as ttyS{1,2} as I expected, but rather as ttyS{4,5}! A quick test confirms that these ports are working just fine.
Thanks, Alfred
