New asy question (was Re: Help needed with using 'asy' with interrupts 9 & 10)

Jim Murray's asy driver is one great piece of software.  
I am now reliably running four asy ports on Sys V/AT 2.4.

However, does anything special have to happen to run five ports?

I have the routines running on interrupts 4,3,5, and 14.  I cut
the interrupt request line on a dumb serial card and ran it to IRQ 14
on a neighboring card.  Works fine.

However, when I tried to add a fifth port, on IRQ 12, the line hangs
as you describe.  I've edited the count in cf/master and dfile.wini,
as well as asy_conf.h.  

Anyone know if I'm just getting greedy?  Are 5 serial lines too much
to try for?  I'd rather find out I just forgot something. :-)
